Gwydion Dylan has been out of the picture for years. Open Dylan is the only maintained implementation. Perhaps you went down a wrong path....

You can't bootstrap OpenDylan from source without a Dylan compiler. You can bootstrap Gwydion without one with substantial elbow work, which you can then pivot into bootstrapping OpenDylan.

I know what I was doing, and if you look elsewhere in the thread, I was right about what the GUIX maintainer wanted. Not to get egg on your face.
