Having written a Scheme-specific xgettext implementation myself, I
think the issue here is that guile@3.0.7 returns syntax objects from
(read), whereas previous guile does not.

The trick that I'm applying is to call syntax->datum on the return
value of (read).  In older guile, this does nothing, whereas in newer
guile it returns the symbol, keyword, list... whatever (read) would
have returned in the old implementation.

I hope this works out for you the way it did for me.

Cheers!
