Ah sorry.  Then the answer is "no".

Then indeed, you have to go through `dynamic-wind'.  Arguably, this is
not very convenient, but it's been this way for very long.

OTOH, you have `save-module-excursion' which takes a thunk and does what
you want.  You could write:

  (define (load-with-env file env)
    (save-module-excursion
      (lambda ()
        (set-current-module env)
        (load file))))

And no, it's not documented (patch welcome! ;-)).

Thanks,
Ludovic.
