Thank you for the input.

I was unable to build the latest version (1.59) without also building
the intermediate versions (1.58), hence why the package declarations
for 1.57 and 1.58 remained intact with testing as I was verifying that
they build.

You're right, the bootstrapping releases should be trimmed down. I am
very new to Guile so if anyone wants to modify the patch while I learn
the build system to create a new patch, that would be fine with me.

/With regards
- Paul
