There were really two points in my message:
1. Autoconf/Automake (and, consequently, the user) _must_ know about
these three different directories, namely `guileschemedir',
`guilelibdir' and `guileobjectdir', instead of only one directory
(which you seem to be assuming when talking about
`GUILE_SCHEME_DIR').
The mechanism you proposed is _needed_ to allow Guile to play well
with Scheme source files installed in various directories -- in
other words, your mechanism must translate various installation-time
values of `guileschemedir' into a suitable run-time value of
`%load-path'. Your proposal is alright for this.
2. While we're at it, we might want to use your mechanism as well for
shared objects.
(1) is really crucial I think. (2) can be thought about later on.
Thanks,
Ludovic.
