LilyPond can work fine with a private Guile-1.x compilation (configured
with something like --prefix=/opt/guile-1.8 which let's "make install"
put all the stuff there instead of in system directories) as long as you
give the proper GUILE_CONFIG=/opt/guile-1.8/bin/guile-config invocation
to LilyPond's configure run.

It's the Scheme subsystem for LilyPond.
