We can add a #:version to that module. I don't want to version any
modules outside of the R6RS support modules, though, because of the stat
penalty.

  $ meta/uninstalled-env strace guile -c 1 2>&1 | grep stat | wc -l
  164

  $ meta/uninstalled-env strace guile -c '(import (rnrs (6)))' 2>&1 | grep stat 
| wc -l
  773

There are only 20 or so modules in (rnrs (6))...
