I never said I don't want to fix Guile 2.2 bugs, and you should know
as I spent lots and lots of time debugging #6218. I also said I
support moving CI to 2.2, so any MR would pass against 2.2.
I am just asking to not drop 1.8 support.
Most of the work we do isn't actually about Guile anyway,
$ git log --since 2022/01/01 | grep ^commit|wc

$ git log --grep=[Gg]uile --since 2022/01/01 | grep ^commit|wc
