   In the node "Procedures for On the Fly Evaluation" of the Guile
   Reference manual, the primitive "read-and-eval!" is described.

   However, it doesn't seem to be available.  Maybe it is defined in some
   module?  If so, I looked at the paragraph describing the primitive, at
   the beginning of the node, and one node up ("Reading and Evaluating
   Scheme Code").

   guile> (read-and-eval!)
   (read-and-eval!)
   standard input:12:1: In expression (read-and-eval!):
   standard input:12:1: Unbound variable: read-and-eval!
   ABORT: (unbound-variable)

i believe this bug is actually a misunderstanding.  i could not
reproduce the above behavior.  see below for a more straightforward way
to see if some proc is available.
