Hi Ludovic!


> There’s no ‘fold’ in R6RS-lib; it’s called ‘fold-left’.

Fixed -- see commit 5b379729bb5f5d06ceb02c4e96ccc62cf61f9c62.

Fixed.

Well, I don't know.  Those exports currently /are/ aliases for those
procedures, but that's a bug that I introduced because I had some
hesitation over how to implement the real procedures efficiently.  I
suppose I should revisit that problem...  :)

Fixed as many of these as I could find.  Let me know if you notice other ones.

Done.  Off-topic: While poking around, I noticed that SRFI-35 is
implemented purely in terms of Guile structs; would it make sense
later to re-implement using a subset of the features of `(rnrs
conditions)'?  (Ditto for SRFI-9 and `(rnrs records)'.)

I make no such claim!  Fixed.  :)

Done.
