What if users want to run from a directory with an init.ss which isn't
an IronScheme init file?

IKARUS_RC_FILES accomplishes a similar ability:

$ export IKARUS_RC_FILES=init.ss

and now whatever directory you run ikarus in, it will expect an init.ss
in that directory.  Note that ikarus expects it and will error if it's
not there; I prefer this because you told ikarus to use a file but it
can't do what you told it to.
