Hi David,

That's because in the old version, the 'case-lambda' had the docstring
outside of the clauses -- a syntax that wasn't supported before 2.0.9.
However, you should switch to using the new version of mvars.scm, which
avoids the 'case-lambda' altogether, and also fixes some bugs.  The new
version should work on older versions of Guile.
