Comment(by sjamaan):

 Why not add this property setting code to gensym?  It seems like a useful
 thing to keep around on all generated symbols, even outside the context of
 Chicken core.

 Here's a silly idea: I don't know how and where gensym is usually used,
 but I can imagine it might even make sense to have a procedure (original-
 symbol-name <sym>) which retrieves this property, if available, to "undo"
 gensym calls. If not available, it would just return its argument
 unmodified.
