This is starting to hurt the guile community. At least for me I
cannot use ttn's work without patching it to work with the
official GNU guile. I'm e-mailing him privately now to see what
can be done about getting some of his module work to be
compatible. It's not an easy thing to do because his guile tree
has some incompatible features.

I'm not trying to stir the pot here, but I would like to see if
there's anyway ttn and the guile developers could maintain one
tree just for the sake of getting all the modules ttn worked on
to work everywhere.

The Perl and Python camps don't have this problem. We certainly
don't need it :|
