Yes.  The fix is simply to not set *top-level-lookup-closure* in
set-current-module.

Then we should remove the scm:evil-transformer variable and move more
and more module system code to C (but only when that is easy).  I
think a good intermediate goal is to have a minimal "boot-modules.scm"
file and move the rest of boot-9.scm into a proper module.

I feel like doing this on the spot...
