language module is chosen based on the input. To make this more
convenient, you can omit the @scheme[module-path] and instead specify
it via a @scheme[#:language] expression. This expression can evaluate
to a datum or syntax object that is used as a language, or it can evaluate to a thunk.
In the latter case, the thunk is invoked to obtain such a datum

@scheme[current-input-port] is the source input. A syntax object is converted
