strictly layered above
   - The _elements functions require the array handle interface even for true 
vectors, when all of handle, inc and off are unnecessary. This creates a burden 
(having to declare & release handles, etc).
   - The srfi-4 _elements functions don't accept arbitrary rank-1 xxxarray even 
though they require the array handle interface (inc, handle are superfluous).

+** Plan [4/8]
 
   - [X] Provide scm_VTYPE_(writable_)elements with signature [(SCM) -> 
pointer] for all vector types.
   - [ ] Provide scm_array1_VTYPE_(writable_)elements with signature [(SCM, 
&handle, ...) -> pointer] for all vector types. These replace the old 
scm_VTYPE_(writable_)elements but will be available on the array API and not on 
the xxxvector APIs.

array-handle.h
+  - [X] Remove the dependence of vector.c on array-handle-h
   - [X] Remove the dependence of VECTOR-TYPE-ref -> array_handle use seen in 
scm_array_get_handle.

   - [X] Bug: setaffinity in posix.c failed to release the mask handle
   - [ ] Bug: scm_bitvector_elements doesn't select for type = bit
   - [ ] Bug: bit-set*! already requires second arg to be true bitvector
