The Bigloo version available on github is not bootstrapped. It only
provides the Bigloo Scheme sources. In order to compile them you need
a Bigloo compiler. This is why you see another Bigloo showing up. However
apparently there is something wrong because it is not using the proper
Bigloo compiler that it should have compiled and stashed somewhere. I will
try my best to fix that problem tomorrow morning and I will come back to
you as soon as possible.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
