Hi Marius,

This means it fell through to the case where =E2=80=9Cpython=E2=80=9D is ca=
lled with
more than one argument:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define* (main #:optional (args (command-line)))
  (match args
    ((_ file)
     (let ((compiled (string-append file ".go")))
       (compile-file file
                     #:from python
                     #:output-file compiled)
       (load-compiled compiled)))
    ((_)
     (repl-default-option-set! 'prompt ">>> ")
     (set! (@@ (system repl common) repl-welcome)
           (const (display "\
Python on Guile, version 0.1.0
(Hit Ctrl-D to exit.)
")))
     (start-repl python)
     #t)
    (_ (format (current-error-port)
               "usage: ~a file.py~%" this))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

=E2=80=9Cthis=E2=80=9D was supposed to be the first match, i.e. the =E2=80=
=9Cpython=E2=80=9D executable
itself.  Anyway, the problem is that =E2=80=9Cpython=E2=80=9D doesn=E2=80=
=99t handle any flags
at all.  I=E2=80=99ll implement option =E2=80=9Chandling=E2=80=9D soon (may=
be we can ignore most
options to =E2=80=9Cpython=E2=80=9D).
