It is deprecated, yes. I have fixed the examples to use pkg-config. I
did not fix guile.m4 though, as the current system does have the
characteristic of selecting for whatever version of Guile you have
installed, though not allowing you to choose.
The way forward is to recommend pkg-config for do-it-yourself folk, and
for the rest of us to rely on the Guile support into Automake:
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=7995
Ideally we can figure out a way to merge in your -rpath code into
pkg.m4.
Cheers,
Andy
