I build guile and a few other things (including libgc, libffi,
libintl, libunistring, libgmp, and libltdl) locally using a
reproducible script.
I've been using it on linux and mac since the days of ubuntu 12.04 and
osx 10.8, and have kept it updated to work up through ubuntu 18.04 and
os 10.15 beta (as of 3 months ago).

Today I tried running it on final mac os 10.15 and more up to date xcode 11=
.
It explodes repeatably while building guile; the log shows

      4880 Segmentation fault: 11  | GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=3D0
../meta/build-env guild snarf-check-and-output-texi >

make[3]: *** [guile-procedures.texi] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

This is with either guile-2.2.3 or 2.2.6.

I tried to get the OS to generate a full core dump, but apple's
instructions to make sure /cores is
writable fail on os 10.15.  Maybe if I turn off SIP, but I can't do
that until Monday.

I can reproduce the problem by running just

GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=3D0 meta/build-env guild

in the top level of the source tree, but I haven't figured out how to
reproduce it in lldb yet.

I tried unwinding all the wrappers, e.g.

tail +5 meta/guild > guild.txt
# do what meta-env would do:

That still crashes, and so does replacing the last line with

/Users/buildbot/src/yobuild/recipes/guile/btmp/guile-2.2.6/libguile/.libs/g=
uile
-e '(@@ (guild) main)' guild.txt

but alas replacing the last line with

lldb /Users/buildbot/src/yobuild/recipes/guile/btmp/guile-2.2.6/libguile/.l=
ibs/guile
-- -e '(@@ (guild) main)' guild.txt

and running it just exits with status -1.

Simpler way to reproduce:

$ brew install -s guile

:-)

So it's not just me!

Verified that the problem happens even with xcode 11.1.  Filed a bug
with the brew folks,
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/45602
in case they have any bright ideas.

They did.  See

Evidently Apple turns -fstack-check on by default on mac os 10.15,
which exposed this bug.
One workaround is to add -fno-stack-check when compiling anything on
Mac OS 10.15.
Hopefully it'll be fixed in xcode 11.2.
