That's what I thought too. But in that case I have no idea why my
'(define-module (guile-user))' suggestion didn't work.

Surely it has to be (guile-user), since that what the end of boot-9.scm
moves into - and hence is well-established for the single thread case.
I suspect that a program that calls scm_with_guile() on multiple threads
can't necessarily predict which of the threads will perform the Guile
startup.
