Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 The relevant portion of the log appears to be:

 This makes it sound like a texinfo problem. texinfo was updated to version
 6 last month in r138717; it's possible guile18's use of texinfo is not
 compatible with texinfo 6 and needs to be patched in some way.

 Actually, according to this gentoo bug, it's an incompatibility with
 texinfo 5 already: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=464044

 Also a debian bug report: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
 bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=738295

 These have patches attached that we might use.
