I have committed these changes.

There is a bug; I now get the following error on startup:
> No such function: scheme-interaction-mode

This message comes from Guile.  `scheme-interaction-mode' exists
as a Lisp function, and in the (emacs guile) module as a Scheme
function, but the default module does not use (emacs guile) and
so the Lisp-to-Scheme call fails.  This can be worked around by
doing M-: (scheme-eval '(use-modules (emacs guile))) after
getting the error.

I guess a real fix involves changing `define-command' so that it
makes the Lisp part of the command always call the Scheme part
from the correct module.  I haven't yet figured out how to do
this.  This will perhaps be affected when Guile gets its new
module system, but I don't think we should wait for that.
