Don’t forget to add a copyright line for yourself!

Please add “#t” to the end of this phase.  Is it necessary to do this in
a build phase or could we add this to the make-flags instead?

Please add a comment that tells us why the tests are disabled.

Could you please add a comment explaining why these substitutions are
necessary?

As above, please add a comment here.

Please use

        (add-before 'configure 'mklibdir
          (lambda* (#:key outputs #:allow-other-keys)
            (mkdir-p (string-append (assoc-ref outputs "out") "/lib"))
            #t)))

Why does this need to happen before the configure phase?  Can this be
done before the install phase?

Why “without-nonpic”?  Should we add support for nonpic at a later
point?

The description could be improved.  The sentence is not complete as it’s
missing a verb.

LGPL version 3 only?
