That's right.

That conditional was added when I debugged the port to chicken (I compiled
QobiScheme.scm to an .so to reduce turnaround times). QobiScheme is needed
for providing the library functionality for the rest of stalin. I
wouldn't be surprised
if I made a mistake, but as I currently understand it, when compiled
(which is the
normal case, as running it interpreted is indeed not intended), this is
required. What would you suggest exactly?
