And, how about adding finite? and its ilk from r6rs into #lang racket. I have them in science/math, but they are probably core level routines. I had mentioned before that we probably should see what from science/math might be more useful in the core.<br>

</div>This is probably less problematic than `integer?', since `rational?'<br>
is (I assume) less used. But this is the same problem.<br>
