That suggests to me that Fink's "guile" package (which corresponds to  
guile-1.4, by the way) may need some modification:

http://wiki.finkproject.org/index.php/Metapkg:compilation_problems#I.27m_getting_undefined_symbols_for_.22__environ.22_when_linking

But that's a pretty old guile version.  Fink's existing texmacs  
package uses guile18 instead.  I'd recommend trying that first.
