I don't know how to take this.

Being easily integrated with C programs is Guile's raison d'etre
(or it was originally, anyway). Producing multiple libraries or putting
constraints on the format/contents of the library would impose more
work, and hence less ease, on the integrator. That's just my guess,
though.
It's not immediately clear to me what a better format would be
without a guile-specific compiler/linker/loader (a scheme compiler
shouldn't have to comply with C ABI requirements except where it, uh,
has to).
Anyway, I don't have any immediate complaint about the policy,
just think it's useful to know.
