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 , at rest))
That should fix the problem. If not let me know what issue you are
having.
