No, the 2.22.2 version uses Guile 1.8 as can be easily seen from the
dependencies. Even if it used Guile 2.2 as Homebrew does, it cannot use
Guile bytecode because that is fundamentally not possible with
stable/2.22. Please don't spread wrong information.

The lilypond-devel port, currently at version 2.23.7, uses Guile 2.2
with bytecode. That *may* be an alternative.
