I wonder if this can be worked around some other way, e.g. by adding
srfi-26 to the =E2=80=9Cwith-imported-modules=E2=80=9D clause.

I don=E2=80=99t fully understand the problem as described in the addition t=
o the
manual.  What does =E2=80=9Cimported syntax definitions wouldn't work corre=
ctly=E2=80=9D
mean?

It would be useful to state that this is something to do with srfi-26.

About the patch:

- please replace tabs with spaces.

- =E2=80=9CBeep the system when the battery reaches %MIN-LEVEL or less batt=
ery
  percent.=E2=80=9D sounds odd.  How about =E2=80=9CBeep when the battery p=
ercentage
  falls below %MIN-LEVEL.=E2=80=9D?

- Can the example be simplified further?  Is (setenv "LC_ALL" "C")
  really needed here?

- instead of let* and when I=E2=80=99d probably use and-let*.
