Re: What's the current-module during gh_eval_str?

The current module is the module returned by `(current-module)'.  It
can be set using `(set-current-module MODULE)', for example.

The current module is saved/restored in `scm_eval_string' (which is
what gh_eval_str will be replaced with), so any calls to
`set-current-module' done from the code in the string have no effect
beyond the call to scm_eval_string.

The module that contains the definition of a function has nothing to
do with the module that is the current one when that functions calls
`eval'.
