Comment (by megane):

 > In general I'm not sure this change is desirable, especially as it
 introduces nondeterminism (what if a module exports both foo and my-foo,
 and we strip the prefix "my-"?)

 Shouldn't it in that case behave like {{{(import (rename foo (foo bar)}}}
 when there's already {{{bar}}} in {{{foo}}}, i.e. silently shadow the
 original {{{bar}}}?
