The return value of ‘chmod’ and ‘make-file-writable’ is unspecified, so
you need to write:

  (begin (make-file-writable file) #t)

> +(define (make-file-writable file)
> +  "Make FILE writable for its owner.."
                                      ^
Take it as an opportunity to remove this extra period.  :-)

Otherwise LGTM.
