FWIW if you use slib from CVS, the included "guile.init" will include
the "guile-2.init" transparently if you are on Guile 2.0, and fall back
to the older code otherwise.

Seems to work for me.  Ah, one thing: you need to update your ice-9/slib.scm
as well.  See commit b194b59fa10574868f7b1663a1f2d447baa18c5e.

Not sure.  You could install slib to the load path.  On Debian systems,
the hacks from b194b59fa10574868f7b1663a1f2d447baa18c5e will work.  On
other systems, I guess we'll get bug reports :)

Cheers,

Andy
