All R6RS implementations I'm somewhat familiar with (Ikarus, PLT,
Ypsilon) do some kind of name mangling when library names contain
"special" characters; e.g. (srfi :6 and-let*) maps to
"srfi/%3a2/and-let%2a.sls", at least for Ikarus (%-escaped hex of the
utf-8 encoding, IIRC).
Nice to see Guile is on the way to R6RS interoperability!
