I think this is a GNU Make issue.  The comment sign in the first line
says it is only usable if --enable-maintainer-mode was given,
otherwise the entire line should be commented out.  Normally make sees
only one line but not GNU Make?

You need a working fth in your $PATH, otherwise the configuration
won't work.  If you have fth in your $PATH what does it say for the
following command lines:

fth -e .prefix             # e.g. /usr/local
fth -e .cflags             # e.g. -I/usr/local/include/fth
fth -e .libs               # e.g. -L/usr/local/lib -lfth -lm
fth -e .version            # e.g. 1.0.8

I think Guile was first.  You can read GUILE_* as XEN_* names.
