  Sorry if we did not communicate clearly; the plan was definitely to
  merge in bdw-gc before the release, and possibly during the freeze
  period.

Probably you did.  I am just barely able to pay attention, and likely
forgot - while I see the point this kind of change in freeze is unusual.

I installed pkgsrc/devel/boehm-gc and then:

Perhaps boehm-gc can be built with thread support?  The guile README
doesn't seem to say anything about this.  pkgsrc does have the ability
to configure with thread support, but by default doesn't.  I don't know
why - but usually there are programs that want it and programs that
can't have it, leading to trouble.  I will inquire.
