It seems like gh_lookup() works different in Guile 1.3 and later versions.
A `SCM_PROCEDUREP (proc)' on the `working' example always works.  The
`not-working' example is due to failure of `gh_lookup (string)'.

MGrabMue: Do you know anything about it?

BTW: I tested the current CVS (checked in some more compatibility code)
with Guile 1.3 and the Madel-Server.  Works fine on my Linux box.  Raimi:
Can you recheck this (unquoting the procedures in mandel-server.scm for
now) ?

Thanks in advance,
