Looks like it's enough to:
$ touch gnu/kawa/slib/StreamsDerived.scm

I vaguely remember seeing this kind of dependency before, but
I don't remember if I tried to track it down.

I'm guessing a bug/limitation in the "import" logic when importing
from a compiled module - i.e. StreamsType.class and/or the logic
in Language#getTypeFor.  In any case the latter doesn't find the
aliased class.

I'll dig into this more later.
