Geiser only supports Scheme, and keeps trying to communicate with Guile
using Scheme, even when Guile is in elisp mode.  That causes the
recursive debugging REPL.  While supporting languages other than Scheme
is not in my plans, Geiser could at least stop talking with Guile while
the latter is not in Scheme mode: i'll push a patch during the following
days implementing that behaviour (therefore avoiding the recursive
REPL).

(I'm not sure what's causing the bogus ",L scheme" message, because
Geiser doesn't modify Guile's output).
