I think we can do the same I did with the compiler modules: simply wrap
the code in a module form, but not install the import library.  That way,
it's still an unofficial "hidden" API, but eggs like SRFI-18 can use
things like chicken.scheduler#schedule.

And, like Christian said, it will hide the helper functions without
having to use a HIDE declaration (with all the dangers of forgetting
to hide one or two identifiers).

Cheers,
Peter
