I agree -- srfi/1 should be compatible with SRFI 1, and I prefer a
mandatory 2-argument make-list.  If we only want to maintain one
version of the function, I wouldn't object to re-exporting the srfi/1
version from scheme/list.  I don't think we should make up a new
version with a different default value, however.  Having one that
defaults to #f and another that defaults to 0, #<void>, #<undefined>,
#<eof>, NIL, or anything else of the sort, would just be confusing.
