As a sidenote,

We incorporate a copy of the GUILE library in the binaries that we
ship for lilypond.  People (call them 'clients' if you like) that go
out and create binaries on their own are a QA nightmare, as there is
no way to be sure that their configuration is working correctly. This
makes it a lot easier to deal with broken dependencies as well: if we
find a bug in a dependency, we fix it, and a patched version of the
dependency is included in the next lily release.

We do this for all dependencies except glibc.
