Dear Haito, what are you trying to do? HOL theories are ML modules. If you type a value, the Polyml REPL replies the value. However, as your error message correctly states, modules are not values. So, the error is what I expect and not a sign that a module is no longer visible.
So, "combinTheory" is a (known and loaded) module and you get an error. "combineTheory.K_DEF" is a value (of type thm) and it works. I does not make sense to me that you say it works in the emacs mode though. There are a few hacks in of loading and opening modules, but nothing that should lead to the behaviour you describe (as far as I'm aware). For me, I get the same error also within emacs. I do not have a recent version of HOL installed currently, though. By the way, it is not HOL theory specific. Try e.g. the module "List" and "List.hd". For opening a module you need to use "open".
