I can confirm half of it :-)

I mean: the double entry "foo" for %load-path in your first result
above doesn't happen for me. Could that be a typo?

As for the strangely different behaviour when running pre-compiled
(old has %load-path's old value) and compiling (old has %load-path's
value after (add-to-load-path ...) yes, that happens to me too, on

  tomas@rasputin:/tmp$ guile --version

Looks like a bug to me.
