The problem is if other libraries do the same thing, ie. put an
strcasecmp in. I expect you get clashes that'd stop an application
using certain combinations of libraries, or getting mis-detections of
what's available where, etc.
For namespace cleanliness any globally visible symbol in libguile really
has to have an scm_ (or probably scm_i_) prefix. Is gnulib setup to
help libraries with that? Nosing around it looks like perhaps not yet.
