This made me wonder -- what happens if you dynamically load (dlopen) a
lib that depends on libguile, and then you later dlclose that lib?
What happens to libguile?  Presumably it will be unloaded too.  Does
Guile tolerate that?

If so, does Guile tolerate being re-loaded?  For example if you then
re-dlopen the lib that depends on libguile and start using it?
