A few more notes:
I wrote earlier:

Also the handling of Ctrl-D appears to be disabled in noncanonical mode
on my system, although this wasn't clear to me from the docs.

There's an additional wrinkle here: after 'read' returns, Guile tries to
read optional whitespace followed by a newline, but only if it's
immediately available. See 'flush-to-newline' at the end of
module/system/repl/repl.scm in Guile.
So, unfortunately there's a race condition here, but typically if you
send the newline immediately after the final character of input, it is
likely that the newline will be consumed by the REPL reader and not by
the code that is subsequently run.
Finally, I should note that I consider this race condition suboptimal,
and will likely change how Guile behaves in the future, so please don't
rely on the behavior I have described above. I will likely change
Guile's REPL reader to wait for the final newline in all cases.
