May I suggest then a bit more rigor in the choice of paths.  What paths
does Guile use?  Are they entirely taken from argv0, or are they
hard-coded at build time?  I'm not opposed to relocatable builds, in
principle, but if you can move Guile around, then it needs to hard-code
no paths in it.

Regards,

Andy
