Also FWIW the guile 1.4 info pages don't mention bound? AFAICT, and
anyone who found the mention of it in NEWS also saw:

  The optional argument module also exports the macros `let-optional',
  `let-optional*', `let-keywords', `let-keywords*' and `bound?'. These
  are not documented here because they may be removed in the future,
  but full documentation is still available in optargs.scm.

So bound?'s status was somewhat ambiguous in our last release.
