The Mint 18 installation resides on a separate partition which is not
mounted when I run Mint 17, and vice versa. Only the /home partition was
common between these two Mint versions, so I can't think of a way that
this could get messed up.
And forgive my ignorance, but what are Scheme files? And how can I
locate them? I can't recall having come across these before. If a newer
version of one of these is somehow parked in my /home directory, but not
in ~/.gEDA/, then that might explain things.

$ guile -v

I don't know; how can I find this out? This is the gschem version:
$ gschem --version
gEDA 1.9.2 (gb83e7a3)
Note: I installed geda-geschem, pcb etcetera as packages from the
mehanik/geda-unstable PPA, but that has always worked fine. As is no
doubt clear from the above, I'm only marginally competent in debugging
things like this.
