Subject: Guile 2.9.7 regression: "duplicate" record field names

Hello schemers,

The following program works in Guile 2.2.6 (and other R6RS
implementations), but raises an exception in Guile 2.9.7. A field called
"name" exists in record type a and record type b, but there is no actual
naming conflict as I understand it.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(import (rnrs))

(define-record-type a
  (fields name))

(define-record-type b
  (parent a)
  (fields name))

(let ((x (make-b 'a 'b)))
  (write (list (a-name x)
               (b-name x)))
  (newline))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It should print (a b). The backtrace:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Backtrace:
