I haven't heard anything back from the FSF yet.  Or should I?

Hmmm.  The improvement to slib.scm is well and good, but is it a good
idea for a Guile component to depend on SLIB?  If the dependency is
something basic like sort, then it should be in ice-9, IMHO.

P.S. My new record system (actually a whole type system) probably
won't make it before 1.4.  OTOH, I've found that not having any time
for coding improves the design considerably :).
