From d866f4455b36c992fe9010724fcc880de24084a5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>

Subject: [PATCH] (process-define-module): Do not call set-current-module.
 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion. (top-repl): Do not define
 '(guile-user)' module and conditionally load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9
 regex)' here.  Do it on top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single element list
 when adding "." to it. (process-define-module, process-use-modules,
 module-export!): Add dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
