I've now renamed `(user)' to `(guile-repl)' because of the assumption
that, in a future guile, the sets of bindings exported from the
modules (scheme), (guile), and, (guile-repl) will have the following
relations: (scheme) will be a subset of (guile) which will be a subset
of (guile-repl).  (I assume that (scheme) will be the core Scheme
language as defined by the RnRS reports.)
