I would recommend the following procedure:

* Download the beta version of the upcoming version and try to compile
  your application against it.  You should configure the Guile tarball
  using --disable-deprecated to have the full effect.  

* For every compilation error, check the NEWS file which should
  contain an entry for every user-visible change.  The entries for
  deprecated features contain information for how to avoid using them
  or which functions/macros replace them.

* In addition, you may want to check out the examples in the exambles/
  directory.  They are written in a style recommended for the newest
  Guile version.

Best regards,
