What in heck is string-upcase doing trying to write to its input string?
Why was the string returned by ag_scm_get() (the function bound to "get")
an immutable string anyway?

Good questions indeed.  I spent a bunch of time investigating this, and
found some bugs that might have caused this problem, although I'm not
certain.

Bruce: Can you please see if the patch below fixes this problem?

OK.  I'll have to play this weekend.  I have to download and install
Guile sources and, unfortunately, this thread notwithstanding, I do
have a day job....

Thank you so much!!  Regards, Bruce
