if I manually edit the color of a guide using the gui, then I get something like below. You should be able to do the same by writing to 'inkscape:color'.

<sodipodi:guide
   position="100,548.57144"
   orientation="1,0"
   id="guide3336"
   inkscape:label=""
   inkscape:color="rgb(22,255,0)" />

AFAICT it won't help with current 0.91 even if the generated syntax is correct: Due to the partial implmentation Inkscape 0.91 and 0.91+devel will not render the guide with the color defined in the SVG source returned by the extension script.

Quick test: 1) open new doc 2) create a guide 3) assign a custom color to the guide 4) run any extension -> once the drawing content returned from the extension is reloaded in Inkscape's document window, the colored guide reverts to the original color.
