That one is part of a whole missing area, on the implementation of the
Guile REPL.  Is it really useful to document this, though?

Perhaps the real issue is that things like set-batch-mode?! and
error-catching-loop shouldn't leak (by default) into the Guile
namespace?  If anyone wants to work on a patch to clean that up, that
would be great.  (I believe ttn has done a lot of work on factoring
boot-9.scm in his Guile.  In principle that can all be ported across,
but in small steps please, so we can be careful with reviewing and
documenting any compatibility impacts.)
