At the moment, I assume guile-dbi involves building C glue code?

I like the backend-independence of the DBI interface, and I also like
Scheme code that I can just drop in and use without needing to compile
any C.

So, personally, I'd generally favour merging these two bindings, and
evolving the other DBD implementations to use the new FFI.  Although
probably also keeping the existing glue code implementation, as an
alternative to support older Guiles.
