...very good question:  again the problem is guile...sure it'd be  
easy enough to link the lib in staticly or include a dynamic lib in  
the app package, but I'm not sure what we'd do about guile's extra  
"procedures" files in share/guile/1.4 or 1.6...don't know if they're  
even used, but I remember having trouble with them not being found  
when I tried to make fluxus portable before...perhaps guile can be  
built without them, or they can be included somewhere in the app  
package where they'll be found...

l8r,
