   Result: 8.  (See attached transcript.)  So, alas, that looks right.

I'm out of ideas then -- this must be caused by something that is
different between Snow Leopard and GNU/Linux.  Perhaps Chris can take
a look at this, since I have no Snow Leopard handy?

By the way, if your goal is just to build the latest Scheme, you can
start with

<http://people.csail.mit.edu/riastradh/tmp/mit-scheme-20091116-x86-64.tar.gz>

by untarring it in $prefix and then running `./configure && make &&
make install' in the microcode alone, without needing any prior Scheme
system or a C build.
