You cannot allocate a valid struct module_fun_env embedded in a
save_value from Lisp (first expected argument of 'module-call').
Therefore any call to 'module-call' from Lisp is invalid. It's an
implementation detail and shouldn't be used directly by users.

It's the same.

I already signed the copyright assignment papers few years ago. I've
already contributed a few things here and there (underwave support)
and finally I initiated and spent most of a year working on this
dynamic module feature, along with Philip Stephani. Is there anything
else I should do?
