Notes

You need a working C compiler.

Some GNU/Linux distributions ship with gcc configured to compile with -fstack-protector (Ubuntu Edgy is one of them). The linker will complain about __stack_chk_fail_local if this is the case.
You can resolve this in two ways:

1. Push -fno-stack-protector to CFLAGS:
   export MZSCHEME_DYNEXT_COMPILER_FLAGS=-fno-stack-protector
2. Use gcc as the linker:
   export MZSCHEME_DYNEXT_LINKER=/usr/bin/gcc
