When the toplevel variable passed to `autoload' refers to a module

I've just taken a look at how autoload works. Basically:
(autoload foo bar)
expands into something roughly like:
(define bar (lambda args
(require foo)
(let ((tmp (global-ref foo#bar)))
(set! bar tmp)
(apply tmp args))))
...with some extra stuff in to handle conditions arising and all that.
If there's anything fatally wrong with this approach, please say now, as
it *seems* to be working OK for Ugarit ;-)
