Why is that the case? Because, as you spotted yourself, guile-lib src modules are guile version agnostic ... But i'll think about it, as it appears i am a bit lonely, to think one shouldn't (ever) duplicate guile version agnostic code (on the same machine), as doing so could lead to other (potentially serious) problem(s) ... Meanwhile, as all distro do, feel free to patch this downstream, to install the scr modules in $prefix/share/guile/site/$EV - but the ideal would be to have 'the machinery' to properly handle one version of the (identical) src modules, multiple .go versions ...
