<p>Guile has a Scheme level variable <code class="code">*features*</code> that keeps track to
some extent of the features that are available in a running Guile.
<code class="code">*features*</code> is a list of symbols, for example <code class="code">threads</code>, each
of which describes a feature of the running Guile process.
