For this kind of error (unbound variable), just typing =E2=80=98make=E2=80=
=99 or C-c C-k
in Geiser reports the unbound variable.

Doing that before pushing is definitely advised.

Sometimes that=E2=80=99s not enough to detect other errors (such as circular
dependencies), but that=E2=80=99s quite unusual.

Yes, I prefer #:select when possible, but otherwise either of these two
prefixes is fine with me.

Thanks,
