I've now created another pull request that does this, here:
https://github.com/plt/racket/pull/377
There's one remaining question. The `make-base-namespace` procedure
provided by `mzscheme` attaches the `mzscheme` module. But this pull
request removes that module, so it can't be attached or required in
this code. The alternatives are:
1. Just attach/require `scheme/mzscheme`. Slightly incompatible in
some corner cases.
2. Don't remove `mzscheme` from the core.
3. Remove `make*-namespace` from `scheme/mzscheme` and implement them
in the `mzscheme` collection in the `mzscheme` package.
I'm currently leaning toward 3 but I'd appreciate anyone else's thoughts.
