Indeed.  :-/

Jan reported it at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-03/msg00720.html>,
proposed a patch at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-03/msg00945.html>,
and is discussing a solution upstream (in Guile itself):
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2016-03/msg00000.html>.

We’re getting there!

No, as discussed on IRC, this has to do with the fact that
GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH contains .go files for both Guile 2.2 and 2.0,
and each Guile barfs when it stumbles upon the other version’s object
files.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for the heads-up!
