The tarballs I created are available here:
https://gitlab.com/gnutls/guile/-/releases

Is a new releases necessary, or does the 3.7.11 release work?  I can do
a release tonight or tomorrow, but I'm also happy to help someone else
to do the release -- see README-release for the process, skip 'make
upload' if you don't have ftp.gnu.org gnutls credentials.

I'm not sure I exactly what the real problem is here -- but would one
solution be to publish a source-only tarball with the source code files
from git, together with a signature?  That would include any gnulib
files, but not autogenerated ./configure etc.
