Comment (by kencu):
Looks like the patches in this ticket and on homebrew are incomplete. If
the Port is reconfigured with `use_autoreconf yes` then it still fails.
There is a better patch that fixes this issue here
<http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?109347> that would be more appropriate
to use instead.
Also, notably, the author of autogen has not exactly certified autogen to
work properly with guile-2.2 see <http://mac-os-
forge.2317878.n4.nabble.com/autogen-install-or-upgrade-fails-
td336506.html> but suggests a warning be used in case there are as-yet
undiscovered problems. Hmm.
I don't see any reports out there that issues have been found with
autogen & guile 2.2. It's broken the way it is. I just checked the
development website <http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autogen.git/log/>
and there's no indication that this issue with guile-2.2 is being fixed in
the autogen source code at the moment.
I'll update the fix to use the new patch, and add a note that it hasn't
been officially verified as the autogen author suggests.
