It seems that we might not need a compat package after all. Lilypond
is actually GPLv3, rumor can be relicensed and geda-gaf looks like
it's actually GPLv2+.

I'd like to proceed with the update. Unfortunately, from the libguile
client packages only gnutls, guile-cairo and xbindkeys compiled
successfully in a local build with guile-2.0.0 installed. (which still
doesn't mean they will work correctly)

It is acceptable to break 20+ packages without knowing how much work
it will take to update them or should I try it in a dist-f16-guile
target first?
