This doesn't appear to work as per page 41, section 4.2.2 Environment
Variables in the docs. Strangely enough, though settings of
GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH *are* observed and added to the front of
%load-compiled-path.

Cheers,
Ian Hulin

Hi Ian,

I think I agree with ijp's assessment of things.  If you can point to
something in the manual that is confusing in this regard, please let us
know.  Thanks!

Andy
