building w/ rx

i read the jun-1997 discussion on rx.  Jim Blandy says:

>  If you want the full Rx interface (i.e. any of the "dfa" functions), 
>  then things are difficult; let me know if that's the case.        

then later:
                          
>  In summary: if your system has POSIX regexp function, Rx or native,
>  Guile should now pick up on that and give you access to them.         
   
the thread terminated because the original question concerned `regcomp'
and `regexec', which are provided in the guile-core distribution.

i happen to need `regexp->dfa', and tried building from the rx
distribution but configure says:

	./configure: ./../GUILE-VERSION: No such file or directory

before experimenting w/ build procedure, my question is: are there any
published hints on building rx for use w/ guile?

thanks,
