I did not know that. I thought that such a modification was a one-line

Yes, but, it's necessary too to add a *warning* on the Lilypond output.
This is much more clear for the user than the documentation.

Thanks to you Carl.
Now, given that it's nonsense to offset an unknown value, I would remove
this property from the offset command of Lilypond.
Or at least, if that remove is not easily doable in the internal API, raise
a *heavy* warning that you are using a random/deprecable command.
Please do no

Then, do you agree that this causes that the \offset command is broken at least
for the X/Y-offset properties of any grob?
In other words, this means: "if you are lucky enough that the position
estimated by Lilypond is the same that you have in mind, offset will offset
to the quantity that you want. Otherwise it will led to improper placement

Ok, seems that guile-2.2-libs does not provide libguilereadline...
I think the remaining option is to build guile-1.8 from scratch.
First make sure that you have libreadline-dev installed, then, in your
home directory, do:
git clone -b branch_release-1-8 --single-branch
