this would be very unfortunate.
I hoped that that in the process of replacing EL with Guile the
interface would be cleaned sufficiently so that Guile would be easily
replaceable with other languages (CL, Python &c).

1. it is not distributed with Emacs, so the standard Emacs packages,
like Gnus and c-mode, cannot use it.
2. it is probably slow compared to a native CLOS implementation.
