Snd sound file editor - syntax error

I'm learning the ropes with Snd, the all-purpose sound editor for *nix. I have the following in my /home/jb/.snd file:

; Snd 6.7 (21-Mar-03) options saved Sat 17-May-2003 16:50 PDT
(set! (transform-size) 2048)
(set! (fft-window) exponential-window)
(set! (transform-graph-type) graph-as-sonogram)
(set! (graph-style) graph-dots-and-lines)
(set! (transform-normalization) dont-normalize)
(set! (colormap) 13)
(set! (save-state-file) "saved-snd.scm")
(set! (color-cutoff) 0.0000)
(set! (color-scale) 19.0000)
(set! %load-path (cons "/home/jb/my_scm" %load-path))
(set! snd-remember-paths #t)

(load-from-path "misc.scm")
; end of snd options


However, launching snd gives me the following:

---begin error output---

Syntax error in fixed argument declaration.

; (load ~/.snd)
(while loading "/home/jb/.snd")

---end error output---

Snd loads fine but does not load the requested .scm modules. If there are any Lisp gurus out there that could throw me a bone or two, much appreciated. The .snd config is taken verbatim (with path adjustments) from Dave Phillips' web Snd tutorial.
