I would like to merge this stuff with guile-scsh, but I have not had
much time to work on it.  If someone start working on non-trivial
applications that use guile-scsh, then I would be very motivated to
fix bugs and make improvements to get their project off the ground,
though.

At some point, I'm going to get the web server working with
guile-scsh, but I hope someone beats me to it.
