Guile question

Hmm.  Unfortunately, this isn't as easy as it ought to be, because the
startup functions aren't well-designed (my fault).

Look at scm_shell in script.c.  Do what it does, but load your file
*after* calling scm_compile_shell_switches (which loads boot-9), but
*before* passing the result to scm_eval_x.


Using Maciej's optional argument package is a pretty safe bet.  You'll
have less conversion trouble (if any) using that than rolling your
own.
