Conceptually, guile-procedures.txt is dependent on the configuration
of Guile.  So, strictly speaking, we can't distribute the 'right'
guile-procedures.txt file.

But, we can probably distribute one that is almost always right, but
we have to be careful when generating it.

I.e. when Guile has been configured --without-threads,
guile-procedures.txt wont contain the docs for the threading
functions.

So, when we have a good way to create a default guile-procedures.txt,
then I'd say we should distribute it.
