   Just started looking at Serveez for a project I'm working on
   and realized the latest release doesn't build against Guile
   2.0.x.  ...And then I found this thread!  Is the "next" branch
   in the repository currently usable / buildable?  Is there any
   way I can help with Guile stuff?  (Short of answering Mike's
   question about binary types [0] for which I lack the requisite
   knowledge of Serveez internals...)

This thread is old because in the meantime i've been practicing my
portability chops w/ other packages (mostly w/ Guile 1.8, but w/
occasional forays into 2.x land), neglecting Serveez for many
months now.  Probably i will have gained enough experience in the
next few weeks to answer Mike's question adequately.

(Yeah, lame answer.  But the truth is that i'm slow.)

To help, if you have Guile 1.8 installed you can try booting /
building / running Serveez in as many configurations (platforms,
configure script options) as you can, and report problems (and
suggest solutions).  Or, write more tests.  Or, write some more
Scheme servers.  Or, translate some from C.
