   We use guile_1.2 now for our tool's Interpret Interface. It
   works well both in HP and SUN, but when it runs on Linux (64
   bits), the program come into crash in scm_boot_guile_1 (...)
   calling setjmp(...).  I checked the codes in guile_1.5.4 and
   found that there was no setjmp(...) during the initialize.

   Will this difference lead to the crash? I am so puzzled...
   Could anyone give me some advice/suggestion?

could you be more specific about the linux platform (what chip,
what kernel/libc version, what does config.guess say, etc)?

what does the crash reveal if you run the application under a
debugger (say, gdb) and use "bt"?

have you tried any of the intervening guile versions?  (guile-1.3.4
seems to be most stable for old applications, guile-1.4.1 was just
released yesterday.)
