Anyone with a better suggestion? > You could install debian stable in a virtual machine. Or for a more lightweight approach you can create a debian stable tree using debootstrap and run a shell from it in a container with systemd-nspawn, this is what I did for my quick tests with guile-1.8. The same goes for people wanting to try lilypond with guile-2.0.13, in that case a debian unstable container is to be used.

BTW the results are promising, with my latest patchset the UTF-8 characters should be rendered fine. The images are not pixel perfect because when using guile-2.0 the floating point numbers in the postscript output are formatted slightly differently and that results in different positioning of the symbols on the score, but I haven't looked deeply into that.
