Because it works already with 2.18.2 I've put it in the LSR http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?u=1&id=1057 currently unapproved. Though, no image is displayed. This is a reappearing problem in the LSR (not with the snippet, the code is available), obviously unsolved ...

Probably. I now tested with guile-2.2 Apart from a (known) warning with argument-order for string-delete, I didn't notice any problems.
