I moved old guile related libs out of the way, and it didn't change anything. In my case what happens is probably that loading libs via libltdl (the guile ``standard'' way of explicitly loading libs) doesn't care about the system's standard mechanisms (on GNU/Linux it's ld.so with its /etc/ld.so.[conf|cache] and looks into its own places (which by default happen to be in /lib and /usr/lib). Either the application writer has to take care of explicitly setting non-standard paths, as /usr/local/lib would be, or it's the sysadmin's or user's job.
