I'm not sure extending `define-module' just to solve this specific problem is a good idea. In particular, `use-syntax' itself doesn't seem too reasonable (see [0]). Thus, in the long-term, it may be preferable to remove `use-syntax' or replace it with more robust primitives, rather than working around it. Thanks, Ludovic.
