Right. That needs to be fixed, though we also need to get run-time
checking for the right version of slib (now that we know there's a
problem).
To answer your first question, though, yes, you can trap the errors.
In guile, it generally throws an exception whenever anything goes
wrong, and if you know that #f is never a legitimate return value,
then you can just wrap the call in false-if-exception and check for a
false return value. If you know what kind of exception you're worried
about, you can use "catch". guile-ref has some info about all this.
This is definitely something that needs fixing soon.
