Well, if this is, I agree changing:

__SCM_IMPORT__ -> SCM_IMPORT
__SCM_EXPORT__ -> SCM_EXPORT
__SCM_RL_IMPORT__ -> SCM_RL_IMPORT
__SCM_RL_EXPORT__ -> SCM_RL_EXPORT
__SCM_SRFI1314_IMPORT__ -> SCM_SRFI1314_IMPORT
__SCM_SRFI1314_EXPORT__ -> SCM_SRFI1314_EXPORT

The defines __REGEX_IMPORT__, __CRYPT_IMPORT__ and __READLINE_IMPORT__ are
definitions of the referring MinGW packackes and cannot be changed
currently.
