gEDA/gaf requires Guile 2.0.x.  There is no easy thing that can be done 
about it; the scm_frame_procedure interface which gEDA/gaf needs in order 
to export its Guile API has been removed in Guile 2.2.

If you have deeper knowledge of Guile, you are invited to look into the 
matter; see xorn/src/cpython/guile/py2scm.c for details.
