Comment:

 It looks like a bug in the egg: The implementation of type-errors-numbers
 imports its own module!

 The weird thing is that we don't get a warning or error while compiling
 this module. The compiler should give an error about that I think.  It's
 not really a new bug, though.  It's not necessary to fix this for 5.0.

 A simplified reproduction case:

 {{{
 (module foo () (import foo))
 }}}

 And then

 {{{
 csc -J -c -static -emit-link-file foo.link foo.scm
 }}}
