 33 Configuration, Features and Runtime Options
 **********************************************
 
 Why is my Guile different from your Guile?  There are three kinds of
 possible variation:
 
    * build differences -- different versions of the Guile source code,
      installation directories, configuration flags that control pieces
      of functionality being included or left out, etc.
 
    * differences in dynamically loaded code -- behaviour and features
      provided by modules that can be dynamically loaded into a running
      Guile
 
    * different runtime options -- some of the options that are provided
      for controlling Guile's behaviour may be set differently.
 
    Guile provides "introspective" variables and procedures to query all
 of these possible variations at runtime.  For runtime options, it also
 provides procedures to change the settings of options and to obtain
 documentation on what the options mean.
