I'll just add, as someone who works on packaging of guile in pkgsrc,
that we have had to have multiple versions for a long time. There is
software useful enough for people to want, with various requirements.
Currently we have
1.8
2.0
2.2
3.0
If there were more concern about compatibility -- all 2.0 programs will
compile an work with 3.0 -- then we would not need to keep the old
versions.
