For installation probably yes, but empirically it seems that Guile
3.0.9 can survive if you only have ice-9/eval.go, all the rest (even
boot-9.scm) can be evaluated on the fly. It's painfully slow, but it
eliminates one complex piece (bytecode) from the equation, which can be
quite useful during development / debugging.
