I wonder why it's regenerating psyntax-pp.scm. It shouldn't, psyntax.scm
should be newer than psyntax-pp.scm. Can you make a fresh checkout and
try again? It could have been an accidental change from the copyright
updating.

Yes this is a problem. Guile shouldn't depend on readline at all, not
even in Scheme modules that are not loaded by default. We should move
this module to guile-readline, IMO, or work out some other solution.

What revision of the git repo was this?

To me that looks like a segfault in your shell.

Thanks for the report,
