Yeah, let's do this. I've been struggling for too long with what to do
with these ports procedures, and still haven't been able to come up with
a good solution.
One suggestion: Given that input-port-open? and output-port-open? are
in chicken.base, I would find it more intuitive to have port-closed? in
chicken.base as well. What do you think?
