If you want. :-) I thought it might be too much to have a second commit
that touches all recipes where 'modify-phases' is used, but maybe I'm
being too pedantic.

Hm, if Guile 2.1 intends to have a fully hygienic syntax-rules by
default, I would expect it to offer a way to enable the alternative
behavior for a given syntax-rules usage, because AFAIK it's quite common
(if not more common) that unhygienic matching is desired.
Otherwise, we could just use slightly different identifiers:
phase-delete, phase-replace, phase-add-before, phase-add-after.

Ah, I didn't think of that.
