You want to return scheme_intern_symbol("helloworld").

That probably won't work.

Save the module to 
collects/helloworld/compiled/native/ppc-macosx/helloworld.dylib and 
import it with

   (require (lib "helloworld.ss" "helloworld"))

The .ss file doesn't have to exist.  If it does, it will be ignored 
unless no compiled modules exist.  That ppc-macosx directory is right 
for OS X.  Other systems will be different and can be determined inside 
of Scheme using (system-library-subpath).

You may also want to investigate the make collection (search the help 
desk) when you get tired of typing mzc commands.
