For small modules, I think guile-lib may still service a niche. Some
downstreams tend to favour having very small language extensions
packaged together (e.g. Debian). It is certainly more convenient to
declare an apt dependency on guile-lib, rather than introduce a new
package for every 20 line module.
Perhaps it can continue as a kind of collabatively maintained library
for flyby authors to deposit their useful-but-small modules.
