The problem here is that (port-filename <socket>) returns the symbol
'socket', whereas our assembler assumed that any non-#f filename stored
in the source properties was a string.

Fixed in 015c3c08af2064145d423cef0d94f04069c3e87e.

    Thanks!

After pulling from git, I have observed that the tcp scoket server
no longer works.  The below used to work fine:

$ guile
scheme@(guile-user)> (use-modules (system repl server))
scheme@(guile-user)> (use-modules (system repl common))
scheme@(guile-user)> (spawn-server (make-tcp-server-socket  #:port 1661))
$1 = #<thread 140551788197632 (1e8c800)>
scheme@(guile-user)>


then in another terminal:
$ telnet localhost 1661
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

scheme@(guile-user)> (+ 2 2)
While compiling expression:
ERROR: In procedure string->utf8: Wrong type argument in position 1
(expecting string): socket

but comma commands work fine:
scheme@(guile-user)> ,h
Help Commands [abbrev]:

 ,help [all | GROUP | [-c] COMMAND]
etc.
scheme@(guile-user)> ,q
Connection closed by foreign host.

The above appears to be correct usage, per
http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/docs/master/guile.html/REPL-Servers.html
-- I don't see any obvious way of slotting a socket-to-string-to-utf8
conversion in there ...
