Yeah, there are quite a lot of improvements after the 1.3.1 release.

Fixed in v8.

I tried different ways but the arguments key-words between gnu and copy 
differ a lot. I am unable use key-words from both build systems at the 
same time. Like using #:configure-flags (from gnu) and #:install (from 
copy).

Also, I spent significant amount time to come up the phase I have. So if 
there are no critical issues, I would like to keep it as-is. :-)

I don't know what I was thinking. XD. It is pretty useless to ship. I 
removed it in v8.
