Hey,

I've created a new branch/ref
<https://github.com/dadinn/guile/tree/wip-hygienic-expect2> with some
additional rewrite/changes I made.
Additionally, all was rebased on current master.

The main difference is that I changed the named parameters to use
**ear-muffed** syntax...
...an idiom in Clojure for thread local dynamically bound variables, which
named parameters are.
This way they don't conflict with the old/original lexically
scoped/captured parameters.
Therefore now the named parameters could be exported, and directly accessed
from the module.

Regarding, that vague loopy behaviour... I am not sure if you are referring
to the same thing, but I did encounter something similar with while running
the tests.
It seemed to me the issue happened non-deterministically while running the
interact macro tests.
I couldn't identify whether the issue was with the macro itself, or with
the test.
Interact runs on 2 threads: the main thread runs expect on the output port
of the process, while the other is reading user input and submitting it to
the process via its input port.
IMHO it is ensured that the interact thread gets closed on exit.
Also, I tried to make sure the tests close all ports correctly.
Not sure where the issue could be coming from.
At any rate, I have used the interact macro extensively outside of the
tests, and never had such problems with it.

Best regards,
Daniel Dinnyes
