Note that this is not coming directly from LilyPond, scheme-sandbox
doesn't need (ice-9 readline). From the call of (load-user-init), do
you maybe load that module as part of your ~/.guile ?

As you can see, the REPL itself works just fine. What does not work is
the REPL server because we disable all networking functionality in our
Guile build. Here I'm even more hesitant to change direction because
everything interfacing with network is security-sensitive...

As Jean has pointed out, the debugger support is broken with Guile 2.2
for other reasons, so that would need to be fixed first. Whether we
need readline support afterwards for it to work, I don't know - given
that the REPL works (see above), it may not be needed at all.
