Comment(by sjamaan):

 I've tested a couple of Schemes, and it looks like Chicken is doing
 something pretty wrong with generated macro names. Try the following on
 the REPL:

 {{{
 #;1> (define-syntax foo (syntax-rules () ((_) (begin (define bar 1)
 (display bar) (newline)))))
 #;2> bar  ;; This causes an error to be thrown.  In Chicken, it just
 results in 1
 }}}
