That's about how I feel.

I'll see if I can manage this, but 
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/MacOSX/MacPortsDetail#guile_1.8.1 doesn't 
fill me with hope.  It'll certainly involve me hacking around in the 
Macports gnucash and recompiling it to look for "guile" as oppposed to 
"guile16" at the very least...  It also sounds like I'll need to compile 
guile 1.8 with some non-default options, at least according to those 
gentoo bug reports.  :(
