I think it is simpler to to use a new module, as there's currently much
work going on in "tex.scm".

Indeed, I'm currently in the process in packaging `texlive-scheme-full'
(and could use some help, as I might lose my sanity along the way). Once
this is done (if it is ever!), we will be able to remove monolithic Tex
Live completely.

Sure.
