In this clause, it is checked whether every part of the library's name is a
symbol:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=blob;f=module/ice-9/r6rs-libraries.scm;h=c6ba6a4964d1eb861ef7eca1076d5e7019c134c4;hb=HEAD#l158

Interestingly, the long library form `(library (srfi srfi-9))' doesn't work
either here because `library' is not recognized as a keyword but mistaken
as the name for a library.
