One minor note: guile -v output should contain 2002 in the copyright
line.

Then I had problems installing from the tarball to /usr/local when an
old Guile (1.3.4) lived in /usr: Dynamic linking did not work, not for
readline nor for srfi-13/14.  After purging the Guile in /usr,
everything worked fine.

I'll try to find more details.
