Right (I think). I was wondering if the vm can handle loading a .scm
file and byte-compiling it leaving the result available for use, but
writing no .go file. (using /tmp for each file would be OK). It's
not a big deal, I'm mostly just speculating about future uses...

Well, I was speculating, for example, about wanting to run guile
interactively on such a device -- where you want to keep the .scm
files around so you can edit them, and you also want to run byte
compiled code for performance, but since you don't have a lot of space
in persistent storage, you don't want to write .go files -- you want
the compilation to happen in RAM and the result to stay there.
Again, though, not a big deal, just speculating.
