For starters, we could figure out why --debug doesn't work. This is
for a current CVS GUILE


muurbloem:~/src/lilypond$ cat g.scm

(define (f x)
  (display "HI")
  zapp)

(define (g x)
  (x))



(g f)
muurbloem:~/src/lilypond$ guile --debug g.scm
ERROR: Wrong number of arguments to #<procedure f (x)>
muurbloem:~/src/lilypond$ guile g.scm
ERROR: Wrong number of arguments to #<procedure f (x)>
muurbloem:~/src/lilypond$ guile
(guile>

(load "g.scm")

Backtrace:
In unknown file:
