The old packages were built with guile-2.0, and guile-2.2 is now in
Debian. With the attached patch re-enabling guile-gnutls built against
guile 2.2, it builds and passes the test suite for me:

make[6]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/b4deb/guile'

Would you consider re-enabling at least in experimental to test if the
issues have since been fixed?
