We already have a way to distinguish modules created without a name: their kind, as returned by module-kind, is #f. So, i'm closing this bug.

That'd be useful for geiser.

From the NEWS:

** All modules have names now

Before, you could have anonymous modules: modules without names. Now,
because of hygiene and macros, all modules have names. If a module was
created without a name, the first time `module-name' is called on it, a
fresh name will be lazily generated for it.


Should we have a flag on these modules to indicate that they are really anonymous?

If one obtains the list of root modules via

   (module-submodules (resolve-module '() #f)


one of the returned modules has a funny name:

 (#{\ g1778}#)


I'm not sure if this is really a bug, but AFAICS, this module does not have a proper name, does it?
