[PATCH] Attempt at packaging guile-emacs (needs help)

[Christopher Allan Webber]

Hello all,

I started working on an attempt to package guile-emacs, based on
  http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GuileEmacs

This includes both a package for guilemacs-guile and guilemacs-emacs,
both BT Templeton's WIP branches.

Unfortunately, guilemacs-guile does not complete building.  It compiles,
but then fails "make check":
  http://pamrel.lu/2aa8f/

I don't really understand why that is at present, and I don't know much
about Guile internals.  Help would be appreciated!

I think it would be really useful to have Guix packages of guile-emacs!
The Guix community's present composition has a large overlap of people
likely to try to use it, and well, I think the communities' goals are
also highly complimentary...

Anyway, help appreciated, if you can spare it!
