     Type:  defect    |                Status:  new
 Priority:  major     |             Milestone:  someday
Component:  compiler  |               Version:  4.12.0
 Keywords:  ffi       |  Estimated difficulty:  medium
----------------------+--------------------------------
 This program fails to compile:

 {{{
 (module test (x)
   (import foreign scheme chicken)
   (define-external x int 123))
 }}}

 If you don't wrap it in a module, {{{x}}} doesn't exist if you load the
 shared object you get from {{{csc -s}}}.
