Comment:

 I can verify this problem, in fact the provided patch is somewhat
 incomplete — it fixes this particular instance of the problem while other
 uses of `symbol-append` in the code might suffer from analogous
 problematic behaviour.

 All the expressions using `symbol-append` have been adapted accordingly in
 changeset [http://www.chust.org/fossils/srfi-99/info/294ff6295b
 294ff6295b]. I would appreciate it if you could test this, too, before I
 tag a new version of the egg.
