Yeah.  The difficulty with several packages per file is that we may
quickly end up with circular dependencies among modules, which should be
avoided.

For strongly connected components of the DAG, like autotools.scm and
multiprecision.scm, it’s safe to bundle them together.  Likewise for
packages that have a common dependency, such as guile.scm.
