I am not sure that 2.0 is not without problems
I have only experience with 1.8

I remember similar problem.
Is there a /usr/share/guile/2.0/slib -> /usr/share/slib ?
If exist then this command was necessary:
# guile -c "(use-modules (ice-9 slib)) (require 'new-catalog)"
But that was with guile-1.8.x
