In 2017 I tried to build GEDA using MXE (*) and failed too with guile.
Unfortunately, the latest guile versio= n that MXE maintains is 1.8.8, still today.
Perhaps help can be sought from the MX= E team, I remember them being very helpful.

Thanks, Enoch.

(*) What I consider to be the best cross platform build system for Windows,

  =E2=86=92 The script needed a little tweak to check out the correct tag=

    but then it actually produced a guile.exe . Next step
    would have been to somehow pass this binary to either MXE or=20
    minipack. Unfortunately, I did not to have the time to poke and
    explore how to go from there.

In the end found myself cheating: Set up a linux desktop with geda tools
running natively and had my windows users use x2go to access a dedicated
xsession. https://wiki.x2go.org

The absence of an installable windows version certainly contributed to
most of my users switch to kicad or even eagle. (This is a university
setting. PhDs have a bit of leeway to decide which tools to use.)
