Hi again,

I just committed a fix to gnucash which allows it to compile with both
guile and guile2, which can be chosen using an option.

Took a while since I also had to fix the slib ports on my way.

Sorry if my previous update to gnucash caused you problems. Unluckily
it's configure script contained a bug which made me think it did not
support guile 1.8.x anymore, which was not really the case.
