Here's a reply I received previously from Marc
Hi,
Could anyone confirm the status of SLIB with Gambit 4? Are there work arounds for any known problems?
Many Thanks
It depends on your version. In some of the recent betas the Gambit runtime contained a definition of a "require" macro. This prevented SLIB to define "require" for its own use. If that's the problem, after a successful "make", you should comment the following lines in lib/_nonstd.scm, and do "make":
(define-runtime-macro (require . rest) `(##require ,@rest))
That should fix the problem. If not let me know what issue you are having.

Looking through the archives, I found a couple of references to efforts various people made to port SRFIs and other libraries to Gambit. I found Guillaume Germain's initial release of SRFIs, but there never seemed to be any followup releases. SLIB apparently worked with Gambit 3.0, but does anyone know if it works with recent versions?
Also, what is the Scheme Now! project and how will it be related to Gambit? I waited with much anticipation throughout December, but alas, I was disappointed.
