Ah, yes, LDFLAGS. The port's Makefile already has
LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib" in $CONFIGURE_ENV, and as guile's configure
is a standard autoconf configure, $LDFLAGS should be picked up (the
output of "./configure --help" supports this), but... well, it isn't.
As I installed guile 1.8.6_5 last september (having one's own packages
archive is a great thing) and the latest change on the port does not look
like it's the culprit (haven't tested that, though), I guess it's down to
some serious autotools debugging.

Christoph
