I don't quite understand what you are doing .. but ...
what is the file ownership, and file permissions,
on /usr/share/guile/site/xchat-guile and
/usr/share/guile/site/xchat-guile/plugin-system.scm

what user are you running as?

If you rm -r /usr/share/guile/site/xchat-guile
before starting the install, doe s the bug go away?
