Thanks for looking at this!

I've added initial guile-3.0 support to master, commit
fe60f9a3f783b4116f803dc614149af672d16300.

Although mescc does not run correctly yet with guile-3, that may not be
strictly needed to build it: we only use Guile to configure, and for
debugging.

That says: We're running mescc on mes (not guile-3) here.  Good.

This is a problem with the parsing of C by Mes+Nyacc -- I have seen a
bug very much like this when using Nyacc > 1.00.2.  Could it be that
you are using a newer Nyacc?
