Description

Reported by John Croisant on chicken-users (link to thread index until message appears in archive).

The variables in question are already marked hidden, but that message is emitted for any variables that are not-visible, including hidden ones. If a variable is hidden, however, the user shouldn't hear about it, so the warning should be skipped in this case, too.

The original bug report deals specifically with procedure names produced by `define-foreign-type`, but any fix should apply to all hidden variables, I think.
