It may be that, while /usr/local/bin/guile is indeed from the new
version, it ends up loading .scm and .go files from the old version.

You could check that by running:

  strace -o log /usr/local/bin/guile --version

and grepping for .scm and .go files in ‘log’.

That could happen, for instance, if there’s a GUILE_LOAD_PATH or
GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH environment variable pointing to
/usr/share/guile/...

Yes.
