Comments posted by a blocked user is still seen by the blocking user when comments are posted via guestook module [http://cdrupal.org/project/guestbook]

Same is true for private messages - if I am ignoring an user, at least her/his private messages and personal guestbook comments should not reach me.

Any workaround/ clue/ help will be greatly acknowledged.

Both privatemsg and the guestbook module do not use
Drupal's node and comments systems. The ignore user
module operates on the standard Drupal hooks for both
node and comment viewing and so would not work out
of the box with privatemsg or guestbook.

For privatemsg, there is already the ability to block a
user from being able to send to you (or to another
user).

For this to work you could possibly override the theme
functions for these modules and try to implement the
ignore user blocking yourself.

Thanks a lot.
Private message allows a generic block, that is, the user can disallow
private messages from all users.

If an user is "ignored" but his private or guestbook or other such messages continue
to appear, the "ignore" functionality loses use for a site member. I understand that
it is based on node and comment but if this is not extended to other modules ( may be as contribs / addons) its use is hampered.

I agree. Some integration with privatemsg would be very useful.
