Maybe put (load "my-load") into your main program, which has that definition. Your modules would just use the already-loaded definition.

But I don't want to have to decide which is my main program. Running any of the modules might make sense in of itself, e.g. to run tests.

• how can one cheaply copy a binding from one namespace to another?

I'm using (eval `(define ,fully-qualified-to ,fully-qualified-to)) now, and that's the slowest part of the whole thing.

I'm not providing an answer, but one can evaluate (##symbol-table) and (##keyword-table). They are hash tables (vectors) but I don't know what their elements are. An empty element prints as ||, but that's not readable.
