I can't close it until I get back home to change configure.in in the repository
:). (CVS is firewalled at work.)

One argument against raising the requirement is that guile 1.6 is not strictly
backward compatible with guile 1.4. For example, eval changed its number of
arguments to be r5rs compliant (aisleriot has code to work around this). So
upgrading guile may require many other upgrades (as far as I am aware guile has
no parallel installation scheme). However most people with old distros
installing a modern gnome will have a separate tree for it and can install the
new guile there too.
