scmutils fails to build with the current MIT Scheme. I first thought it
might just be minor problems, so I applied some patches in build phases:

#t)))

Unfortunately, this is not enough as some procedure bindings have
disappeared, such as “guarantee-procedure-arity”.
The compilation results in a lot of warnings; I’m not sure if they are
harmless. There is no more recent release of scmutils. There is a port
to Guile 2.0, but it is not obvious how to compile it:

I have removed the scmutils package with commit 4267481a4e.
