Heh. Well, primitive-load is a load that doesn't autocompile, doesn't load .go files, and doesn't run within a module excursion. The %load-hook business is another bug, reported recently: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.guile.devel/12259, but not yet resolved. I'll see about fixing this shortly. BTW, I see you are still on 2.0.0. How about beta testing one of these: http://hydra.nixos.org/job/gnu/guile-2-0/tarball/latest 2.0.1 will come out shortly, but it would be good if you could report bugs on the snapshots.
