Ok, I see where it goes wrong. The source guile files have extension ".scm" and the compiled guile files have extension ".go". However it seems like on Ubuntu 16.04 guile is looking for a compiled file by extension ".scm.go" rather than ".go". As gnucash ships only ".go" files, guile won't find what it's looking for and starts autocompiling all files to ".scm.go" files. I'm not sure what this is happening exactly, though I vaguely remember this to be a bug in certain older versions of guile. There's not much that can be done from the gnucash project side. Perhaps the Ubuntu maintainer could request an updated version of guile although I don't know how package updates are handled for LTS releases.
