Subject: bug#10557: GUILE_LOAD_PATH variable value ignored when  setting %load-path.
Date: Thu, 19 Jan 2012 22:39:02 +0000

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
