Great.  I think people trying to use this (like me trying to get it to
work with g-wrap) will be one of the best ways to get feedback about
how well it works.  (I suppose I should probably start playing with
CVS at some point).

Hmm.  I must be hallucinating.  I could have sworn that defines and
define-publics wouldn't behave right inside those loads, where by
right I mean publishing symbols in/out of (foo bar).  Maybe I'm
confusing this with some other problem I'd had...

Right.  Though now that I know about GUILE_LOAD_PATH, I'm much
happier.

Thanks.
