OK ... what's happening is that the right guile is being run, but
the run is not successful:

[europa] GUILE="/tmp/guile/guile-1.6.3/pre-inst-guile" 
../scripts/snarf-check-and-output-texi --manual
Segmentation Fault - core dumped

I believe that the executable that ultimately winds up generating the
core file is in libguile/.libs/guile; on that assumption, here's a traceback:
