This could be interesting. Different databases have all
sorts of crazy column formats (23 different types of dates,
money amounts, "binary large objects" etc),  and clearly
guile-dbi doesn't have this.  Its a fairly small/low-brow
package.

I didn't even look at guile-pg, because I know that some of
the users of my code will insist on mysql.  So I had to be
agnostic.
