Going by the package definition, guile-dbd-postgresql seems to make a 
Guile extension (C). There have been incompatible changes (both on the 
Guile code level, and presumably on the C level). As such, sounds risky 
to me.

Also, for whatever reason, guile-dbi propagates an old guile, so you'll 
get a propagation conflict without guarantees on which Guile version ‘wins’.
