You need to look in the config.log file to find out what the exact  
error message was that caused linking to guile to fail.

Note that a common installation problem with Guile on GNU/Linux  
systems is that people install the precompiled guile package for their  
distribution (e.g. the RPM package on Fedora), but they forget to  
install the guile-devel package (which includes the necessary header  
files etc. to compile programs linked with Guile).
