Yes. guile-1.4 is no longer intentionally supported. I put
the following in the libgeda/README:
...
GUILE - guile-1.6.x or later is required (and anything guile
requires). Guile 1.4.x is no longer supported.
Guile can be found at: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/guile

Yeah, new dependancy version requirements will be spelled out
in the currently in-progress release notes. Perhaps the guile
./configure tests should be improved as well. Thanks.
