Indeed, `reload' only works with modules that are associated with
files.  (guile-user) is not one of them.  Neither are these:

But this is an interesting one:

This appears to arise because use-modules clauses are evaluated twice
(once at expand-time, and once at load-time) and module-use-interfaces!
was not doing the right thing.  Fixed.

Fixed this one too, I think.

Thanks for the reports,
