according to the manual guile provides two types of hashtables one
"abstract" type and one vectorlike type. May be that mixing both types
was allowed in guile 1.8 but not longer in 2.0

In file html-style-info.scm a vector type table was created. The lines
for the abstract type are outcommented. May be that the hanging
hash-fold should be replaced by a construction similare to kvt-fold.???

In the file html-document.scm line 292 I have replaced hash-fold with
kvt-fold so that this line reads now:
  (if attr (kvt-fold add-attribute  #f attr))
The reports are working now!!
Obviously guile-2 has different sorts of hashtables.
Your suggestion about incompatible hashtable types was invaluable to get me past this crasher.

GnuCash was mixing a custom hash datatype (kvt-hash) with a guile proper hash type. Apparently in guile 1.8 the internal representation was compatible enough to get away with this. In guile 2 this obviously changed. I decided to fix it in the other direction though: I have thrown out our custom hash datatype. It was only used in one file and I couldn't see any obvious benefits in it.

Thanks a lot for guiding me in the right direction !
Starting gnucash within the console will result in a new compile process
for the guile files. Besides masses of warnings there are some errors
relating missing "sw_***" files The lines "(load-extension ......)" in
file core-utils.scm, gnc-module.scm and qif-import.scm should be
replaced with (eval-when (compile load eval) (load-extension...)). In
file app-utils.scm it should read (eval-whwn (compile load eval)
(gnc:module-load "gnucash/engine" 0)).
One error in business-reports.scm remains : unbound variable:
gnc:menuname-business-reports which I do not understand??? But as long
gnucash does not use these compiled files it is not very relevant.
I still have to go into this, but again a very good starting point !
