Yes, that sounds right to me.

If you duplicate the `require-library' line, I don't think you need the
mzc switch. But I have trouble remembering or figuring out what is
supposed to work, the best strategy to make it work, etc.

We introduced `module' in version 200 (or 199.X) to clean up this mess:

  (module ...
    (require (lib "cmdline.ss")) ; does the right thing at both compile time
                                 ; and run time 
    ...))
