It was broken by the latest release of libguile4, which no longer links
against libqthreads.  The Guile maintainer says that people should use
guile-config to compile their packages.  I, for one, think that libguile4
should follow Debian policy, which (IIRC) mandates that shared libraries
provide the proper dependencies.
