This might be a chicken build gone bad. How did you build and install
this version of chicken? I can assure you that this works just fine
on many of my machines.

If you give us some more details we will work it out.  If you like
mail the output of chicken-bug to this list (if it works! If your
chicken build is broken this might fail too)

Kind regards,

Christian
