pb w/ SLIB

I'm using Guile 1.3a with SLIB, and I noticed that formatted outputs
are very slow. I found out that it is because format is using the
call-with-output-string that comes with SLIB, i.e. uses temporary
files, instead of the built-in version.

In slib.scm, slib:features includes 'string-port, which, as far as I
understand, should tell SLIB *not* load the strport.scm file. But a
(require 'string-port) still loads it.

Is it a bug somewhere, or a problem with my installation? (I have a
symlink from $installdir/share/guile/site/slib to the SLIB sources.
