This is a build dependency of newer versions of guix (and the upcoming
guix version requires a newer version of guile-lib), so looks like I
should adopt it!
I did some quick testing of the updated guile-lib version, and the
packaging was nicely up-to-date and didn't require much more than
merging the new version, so hope to upload to experimental in the next
few days...
live well,
