Hi, 
rather unlikely -- i'd bet your guile is to modern (or snd-7/xm.so is to
old). IIRC scm_makedbl was deprecated a while ago (i _think_ it had to
do with more consitent naming: scm_t_...). 
Ah yes, from the libguile/ChangeLog [1]:

 2001-04-28  Rob Browning  <rlb@cs.utexas.edu>
  ...
  (scm_makdbl): deprecation expired - removed.

Gosh, that's old! How does such an old symbol get into xm.so? Did you
compile snd-7/xm.so with guile1.4?
