Excellent!

It seems there’s no tag on the repo.  What about tagging this version,
and perhaps posting a tarball as produced by ‘make dist’?

It seems that the Makefile.am lacks the magic trick to make sure that
the installed .go files are more recent than the installed .scm files
(to avoid triggering auto-compilation):

Out of curiosity, what 2.0.9-specific thing does it rely on?

Happy hacking!
