Nice! Thank you.

Here is a little procedure that might help someone (it needs srfi-1):

(define (remove-from-autoloads-done module)
  (define (make-item module)
    (let ((strings-module (map symbol->string module)))
      (cons (string-join (drop-right strings-module  1) "/" 'suffix)
            (last strings-module))))
  (set! autoloads-done
        (delete (make-item module) autoloads-done)))

And an example:

scheme@(guile-user)> (use-modules (foo bar))
While compiling expression:
ERROR: no code for module (foo bar)
scheme@(guile-user)> (add-to-load-path "/tmp")
scheme@(guile-user)> (use-modules (foo bar))
While compiling expression:
ERROR: no code for module (foo bar)
scheme@(guile-user)> (remove-from-autoloads-done '(foo bar))
scheme@(guile-user)> (use-modules (foo bar))
scheme@(guile-user)> (hello)
hello, world
scheme@(guile-user)>
