Also:

1. configure.ac/configure in /xorn directory fails to find any python.

There are two macros:

AM_PATH_PYTHON([2.7])
PKG_CHECK_MODULES([PYTHON],[python2 >= 2.7])

they fail to find any pthon-2.x on my machine even though I ghave 
versions 2.7.17, 3.6.10 and 3.8.2

2. Python2 is on its way out. if you are pushing out guile in favor of 
python, why not using newest stable available (3.8) ?
