bug#50059: (ice-9 format) undesirably loaded when compiling

[Jean Abou Samra]

Hello,

Please have a look at the following session:

$ cat bug.scm
(format #t "~f\n" 42)
$ guile --no-auto-compile bug.scm
Backtrace:
            1 (primitive-load "/home/jean/repos/guile/bug.scm")
            0 (simple-format #t "~f\n" 42)

ERROR: In procedure simple-format:
In procedure simple-format: FORMAT: Unsupported format option ~f - use 
(ice-9 format) instead
$ guile bug.scm
;;; note: auto-compilation is enabled, set GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=0

As you can see, during the run where compilation
is performed, (ice-9 format) is loaded in the
main environment without being asked for, making
the program execution different, which is somewhat
confusing and error-prone as a program that has been
tested once will no longer work the next time
(thus possibly escaping an automated testing
system).

This is with Guile 3.0.5.130-5a1e7.

Thanks for your attention,
