You're right, it wasn't.  The problem is that I had manually renamed
libgw-runtime.so.0.0.0 to libgw-runtime.so.0 but RPM didn't know about
that.  When I upgraded the g-wrap modules, it didn't remove the
renamed library, so guile was still loading the old runtime library.

At this point the only remaining problem is that g-wrap installs
libgw-runtime.so.0.0.0 but there is no symlink from .so.0 -> .so.0.0.0
so guile can't find it.  However, this version of the .so _does_
appear to work.

Thanks.

PS: I had actually noticed this problem just before I received your
email.  I was single-stepping through the initialization and noticed
that it didn't match the code I had on my screen.  That's when I
remembered the .so.0 vs. .so.0.0.0 problem. :)
