Re: gh_enter reconsidered

Well, honestly, I see Guile as a library that does a lot of things.  I
do think you should be able to call gh_cons and gh_append and all that
jazz wherever you like.  Requiring people to do those things only in
the context of a gh_enter call is ugly.  At least the grotesquery
required for a traditional init function is hidden inside.
