gnu: guile: Add "site-ccache" to the search path.

Add "site-ccache" since it's a directory where .go files of guile
packages should go (for example, 'guile-ssh' installs *.go there).

I suppose this patch should go to 'core-updates-next', right?

Indeed.

Yes.

I wonder if it makes sense to keep lib/guile/2.0/ccache since that is
(meant to be) used exclusively by Guile itself, I think.

Andy, WDYT?

Thanks,

Removing Guile's own compiled paths from GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH sounds
like a good idea to me, since these are implicitly included via
GUILE_SYSTEM_COMPILED_PATH or whatever that is.  Similarly for Scheme
files if that is possible!

OK.  Alex, could you update the patch to not only add 2.x/site-ccache,
but also remove 2.x/ccache?

Thanks,

Done, committed to 'core-updates-next' as a08539dd1f.

... or did you mean to *send* the updated patch at first?  oops :-)
