My 2 cents: Guile 3.0 was only released very recently, it's not even
available in rolling release distributions like Arch Linux. Most
certainly it will not be part of the upcoming Ubuntu 20.04 release?
Requiring Guile 2.2 would exclude (vanilla) Ubuntu 16.04 and CentOS 7
which I think would be acceptable for master and future major versions
of LilyPond.
