This looks like it really should be implemented in the Makefile of the project.

Luckily, upstream is no stranger!  Maybe it would be best to submit a
patch to add a Makefile first, so that we don’t need to do so much work
to package it.

According to the readme file this is not correct:

   The project is released under the GNU Lesser Public License, version 3
   or later (as published by the FSF), just like Guile itself.
