Most likely you have to compile guile 1.8 by yourself since it is no
longer available universally as a distribution package.  Starting with
guile's git repository as a source is probably best:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile.git/log/?h=branch_release-1-8

* Clone this repository and check out the `branch_release-1-8` branch.

* Run the `./autogen.sh` script.

* Run 

    ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/opt --disable-error-on-warning
    make
    make install

  (adjusting `--prefix` to your taste).

* Call LilyPond's `configure` script like the following.

    PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/opt/lib64/pkgconfig \
    ./configure ...
