This is not a Chicken-specific problem, but a general problem
with non-hygienic macros. You are using the non-hygienic macro
"args:make-option" within a hygienic macro. The syntax-rules transformer
doesn't know that "h" and "help" are being used literally here (because
it cannot tell what args:make-option does), so it systematically renames
them to avoid collisions.

You can rewrite test as a non-hygienic (explicit renaming or implicit
renaming) macro.
