Maybe with a macro along these lines:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(letrec-syntax ((maybe-load-path
                 (syntax-rules ()
                   ((_ item rest ...)
                    (let ((tail (maybe-load-path rest ...)))
                      (if (string? item)
                          (cons (string-append item
                                               "/share/guile/site/"
                                               (effective-version))
                                tail)
                          tail)))
                   ((_)
                    '()))))
  (set! %load-path
    (maybe-load-path json guile-git guile-bytestructures)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
