Thanks,

Sorry, I forgot about that configure option.  Is it a good idea to add
the libdir to the %load-path?  Here's a small patch to do that.  If
dynamic linking is available this gives a default %load-path of:
 
    ("/usr/local/share/guile/site" 
     "/usr/local/share/guile/1.3a" "/usr/local/share/guile" 
     "/usr/local/lib/guile/1.3a" "/usr/local/lib/guile" ".")
