guile-pg is definitely more feature-full in that case. and ttn's guile-1.4 compatible guile-pg is much more fetaure-full than the guile-1.6 compatible guile-pg generally available through distros. If anyone is interested in porting and maintaining ttn's guile-pg so that it's compatible with guile-1.8 and upwards, in return for bounties, please contact me off-list. Sebastian
