They're not public but they override definitions within the same file
if more than one (define-maybe foo) is present (e.g. when (prefix bar-)
is used)

Due to their non-hygienic nature and the (prefix foo-) argument this
can't work. IMO we should look into replacing this define-maybe business
with something like SRFI-189 (by integrating it into Guile).
