Ah, thanks for finding this.

Why would you need to add `builddir/guile' in the load path? All `.scm'
files are in `srcdir', not `builddir', right?

Unlike `${srcdir}', `${buildir}' is not defined by the generated
makefile when running `make check' so I think this change doesn't have
any effect.

Thanks,
