That sounds like the good diagnostic. Should guile not explicitly test the size of the types, using the C sizeof or equivalent? From the triplet, one cannot deduce the ABI.

Compiling worked so far. Now there is the hash mismatch in http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/guix/bootstrap/mips64el-linux/20130105/guile-2.0.7.tar.xz . Nikita, could you push your modification with the correct hash, or should I make the suitable modifications on my side?
