Sure.  (I browsed this thread recently and I think these were mainly
efficiency concerns.)

I dislike the idea of having to create another version of `srcprop' just
for the sake of leaving private macros publicly accessible, but maybe
I'm just too lazy or radical.

FWIW, http://www.google.com/codesearch?hl=en&q=+SRCPROPSP suggests that
Guile may be the only user of this macro.
