I don't do much else myself.
Here's the Procedure Index for the 1.6 compatible guile-pg which I'm
using with guile-1.8 (with deprecated feature warnings turned off!).

ttn has probably done some work on the same module (database postgres)
and written a whole set of new modules abstraction and convenience
modules:
http://www.gnuvola.org/software/guile-pg/
but...
"To build Guile-PG you need to have installed both the PostgreSQL
frontend library libpq, and a version of Guile that can load binary
module (a b c) from file a/b/c.so or a/b/c/libc.la under `%load-path'."
I believe the last bit means it'll work with guile-1.4 or guile-1.6
(because the ability was only deprecated at this stage), but guile-1.8
definitely no longer has this ability.
