Thanks, I'll have a look.

There is more to it. local-remove works only if the module haven't
been loaded. It's not possible to un-load a successfully loaded module
with it:

----------------------------------------------------------------->8
guile> (use-modules (ice-9 null))
guile> (local-remove '(app modules ice-9 null))
#f
guile> (use-modules (ice-9 null))
standard input:3:1: In expression (eval-case (# #) (else #)):
standard input:3:1: no code for module (ice-9 null)
ABORT: (misc-error)

Type "(backtrace)" to get more information or "(debug)" to enter the
debugger.
guile> 
-----------------------------------------------------------------8<

It would be cool if there was a way to reload modules too.
