Great that you found out!

I’m fine with this patch.  I’m a bit concerned about the risk of
accumulating patches that should really be in guile-emacs proper,
though.  IMO it would be better if this patch were pushed to
guile-emacs, or if an alternate guile-emacs repo were set up if the
current one is inactive.  If that’s too cumbersome though, feel free to
push this patch!

Thanks,
Ludo’.
