In CVS Guile, and-let*.scm was renamed to and-let-star.scm and a
compatibility module named and-let*.scm was introduced, which loads
the former.  Renaming, changing the module name in the file (the
define-module clause) and changing the Makefile is a correct
workaround.

This is also changed in CVS Guile, and commenting it out should work
(IIRC).
