FWIW: it looks like this problem is to do with not stripping trailing
end-of-line whitespace characters (in particular, probably Ctrl-M)
from read symbol names.

From http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?telnet, it looks like telnet
by default sends <CR><NUL> between each line.  Does it help if you use
the telnet command "toggle crlf", to tell it to send <CR><LF> instead?

(Note that the latter is only a possible workaround.  Guile should
handle the default telnet behaviour too, in my opinion.)

Regards,
        Neil
