> I don't really understand your question. With defmacro and syntax-case you can run arbitrary code. If you just output code that does module-define! that won't be run until runtime, and thus you cannot depend on the result of that module-define! during expansion. You can however wrap it in an eval-when to solve that issue. That allows you to specify when code gets run. With module-define! I personally find it all a bit icky, but I usually stay as far away from phasing as I can :)

 eval-when looks like it might be a solution to the puzzle , but
honestly, the doc at

https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Eval-When.html

has me mystified.  When I run the example through guile 2.2 and
display *compilation-date*,

I get a different answer each time. Shouldn't it be a fixed timestamp
(of when the compile happened?)

[hanwen@localhost lilypond]$ guile2.2 e.scm
