I can do that.

This could be made part of `require': if the required feature is
a list, it would be interpreted as a Scheme module name. Perhaps
that is a bad idea; it would overload the meaning of a primitive.

OK.

Sorry, I don't quite understand. Do you mean the src
subdirectory and guile-emacs-*.tar.gz archives? If so, I think
it is not useful there.
I hope it will be easier to use guile-emacs with non-20.6
versions of Emacs if the tar.gz contains either the patch or a
way to generate it. Files in the src directory don't help with
this: to generate the patch from them, one also needs the
emacs-20.6 source which may not be available when emacs-20.9 is
current.
