Yup, I can't even (load "a_setupfile") that will change
read-decimal-as-inexact to #f.  The best I can do is to define a
function in a separate file, "require" it, and then run the function:

(require "setup.ss")
(run-setup)

It's as though read-decimal-as-inexact was a "buffer-local" variable
(to use emacs terminology), and whenever I change it in another file
it can't get "out".  What I need is:

(setq-default 'read-decimal-as-inexact nil)

But, as I said before, print-graph and print-struct don't have this
problem.
