   It would be heartening to read that the maintainer
   of the fork wants to build toward the other branch
   were it not for the cynical suspicion that that
   "harmonize" is like "bi-pertisan"; it means everyone
   should do it my way, even if they fundamentally
   disagree with me.

for me, it means everyone interested should say what they would
(or would not) do and then if there is concensus (after some
refinement), i follow.  if there is no concensus, i muddle
through the best i can (as always).  from the sound of the
responses thus far, this is the most likely outcome.

   If you want to harmonize, maybe both branches could
   think about implementing R6RS library forms.

the library body is specified to be included in the `library'
form.  OTOH, `define-module' is a peer top-level form to the
library body.  how would you reconcile these approaches?
