Hey,
wingo@unquote:~/src/guile$ meta/guile --version
lt-guile (GNU Guile) 1.9.11.159-33df2
Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>.
This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.

Written by the Guile developers.
The license is wrong; Guile is LGPLv3+.
This license printout is from version_etc from gnulib, which I don't
really understand. Ludo would you mind fixing this for the next release?
:-)
Also the "Written by the Guile developers" line at the bottom looks
totally superfluous; would be better without the last two lines I
think.
Also, what about the years?
Andy
