Yes, the ‘guile-reader’ procedure was mostly added for illustrative
reasons, at the beginning.

In today’s real world, I would just get rid of the one for 1.8, and keep
only the one for 2.0.  Someone really wanting 1.8 can still inherit from
the other one and just change the “guile” input.

Would you like to change that?
