Nice to know, thank you.

This reminds me of an issue that I'm having with guile-gnome, but I
guess it's a theme that would be appropriate to come in here.

I'm using the great m4 macros from guile.m4 to test if some guile
modules are installed. The thing is, while I can test for (gnome-2), I
can't for, say, (gnome gtk), because, as I understand it, (gnome-2)
prepares the paths to enable loading gnome modules, but, as I'm not
/using/ (gnome-2) at configure time, I can't locate them.
