Hmm, the current Debian stable version of guile is 2.0.11, and Debian is
rather conservative distribution. Could you update your guile version?

And then, try to build as follows:

sudo make uninstall
git pull
make maintainer-clean && ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && sudo make install && sudo ldconfig

This is because my patch is probably older than edits in those files. So
it has become incomplete now.

I saw this before while trying to cross-compile for Windows.

The only place the scm_to_utf8_stringn function is used after applying
my patch, as I see it, is in the string->page code. Could you run your
gschem in a clean environment to exclude issues with your rc settings?

Cheers,
