Thanks!  (We've known about this issue already, and I have a fix ready
waiting to be comitted...)

We are simply requiring automake 1.5 and put all Guile local macros
into guile-config/.  Therefore, we need to run aclocal as

    aclocal -I guile-config/

and also rig the top Makefile.am to pass "-I guile-config" to aclocal
when automatically regenerating aclocal.m4.
