Hello Greg,

Fwiw, i follow the semantic versioning scheme [1], although starting
with 0.8.0-rc6 and 0.8.0-rc7, i decided to remove the dot in between rc
and the number, because that's what debian does (and that's fine with
me, unlike what you (or your distro) propose).

Hum, i was not aware it was not in 2.2. sorry about this - I'll think
about the best way to fix this, will let you know

You should have zero warning, as i have zero warning when building in
debian [2] - but to get an 'immaculate clean' build, i also need to

	rm -rf ~/.cache/guile
	./configure [--prefix=/your/prefix] [--with-guile-site]
	make uninstall 			# if it was installed
	make

	[ otherwise, depending on what changes were made in the source
	[ tree and/or what is in your .cache/guile 'tree', it might
	[ prematurely recompile some modules.

If you still have some warnings running 'the above', let me know, I am
curious and maybe i can fix those as well.

Thanks,
David

	[ you do not need to 'git clean dxf', nor ./autogen.sh
	[ when compiling using a tarball extract tree ofc ...

	git clean -dxf
	rm -rf ~/.cache/guile/
	./autogen.sh
	./configure --prefix=/opt3 --with-guile-site
	make uninstall
	make
