That is $ git log -p -n1 e9ae1cb3b093498ccb9d5f7348c755a3243bbccc --

but before this commit, it would just always require Guile 1.8.2 to 1.9.0. I've 
no experience with using guile-2.0 or guile-2.2 for the scripts, but if you 
post a patch I can give it a try (Arch Linux bundles all three versions).
Just wondering if it's wise to use a different version of Guile for the scripts 
than the libraries...
