Hi Ian,

I think it would be cleaner to create a new issue for your  
backward-compatibility work and reserve this issue for general discussion.   
What do you think?  If you want to split it off (and I think you should),  
please remove the Patch label.

> Patrick, how about you being overall owner for the issue?

Sure.

It sounds like the Guile developers are working on a solution for this:
