I don't know why, but this particular problem has vanished, possibly due 
to something I did or installed while compiling another program. 
However, I am not yet able to compile skribilo, which depends on 
guile-reader, which in turn depends on GNU lightning, but does not 
support GNU lightning 2.x. Unfortunately, lightning 1.2 does not seem to 
support my cpu. Configure says:

    configure: error: cpu x86_64 not supported

I have succeeded in compiling the most recent release of lightning, but 
that doesn't help me much.

Are there any plans to support lightning 2.x? If not, does anyone have 
any suggestions how to do it myself?
