Macros cannot expand to libraries, so symbolic matching is the correct thing in any define-library form.  Note also that the definition of cond-expand given does not correctly interact with (features).

I was speaking of the cond-expand *macro*. The definition of
cond-expand in 7.3 at least mentions that the N feature identifiers
and the M library names have to be added, in principle.

I do this because I usually work with Chibi, which does not support
include in files very well (I am speaking about the search path...).

In general, however, I don't see why cond-expand and include shouldn't
be used locally. Of course, the syntactic context of included forms
has to be fixed. (Prior work says that it should be the one of the
include keyword.)
