How many people are using guile 1.3 (not 1.3.4) and can't easily switch?

I'm using guile 1.3, only because the rpm I downloaded for 1.4.4 required
it.  I thought it odd that it wasn't using a more recent version.  I'll
upgrade to 1.4.7 to see if that solves the problem.

Since it would be somewhat difficult/time-consuming for me to install
guile-1.3 and add backward compatibility and test g-wrap, I'm trying
to figure out if it would be unreasonable to just require guile 1.3.4
or newer and add a test to the g-wrap configure process.

Since I don't have much experience with the other distributions, I was
hoping people could give me an idea of where they are with respect to
guile packaging.  Also, please let me know if my assertion about 1.3.4
and 1.4 being OK is wrong.

Thanks
