Thank you.

You're right.  Guile-SSH is developed with Guile 1.8 API in mind.  The
main reason is that GNU Guile 2.0 is not available out-of-box in some
distributions at the moment -- examples are Gentoo GNU/Linux (where 2.0
is still masked by default) and Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.7 (where you can
find only 1.6 and 1.8 in the default repository).  But I agree that it
is generally a good idea to make the library work with the new stable
release of GNU Guile.  I'll do it.
