Perhaps it could be a good idea to write a module management utility
(as a Guile script, for instance) that'd get installed with Guile
(xemacs has it, so...)
If you all it gmm (Guile Module Manager), you could do things like
gmm --template <dependancies etc> Generates a template module
gmm --update <CVS or ftp source> Update module tree
gmm --update-template Change the configure files (according
to some spec)
etc.
