This is not correct. Systems like Chez Scheme implement the library system
as part of the expander, making them a part of the Scheme language. This is
intentional, and allows one to expand into libraries, which is a very
useful thing to do, enabling user defined library extensions to be written
without the need to hack the implementation. Making libraries a part of
the language does not preclude the use of any of those identifiers in
Scheme code for other purposes.
