[plt-scheme] Renaming module identifiers

Perhaps if I stated my problem, rather than my attempt at a solution I would've
gotten more responses.
I have some modules that provide a lot of identifiers. These modules follow a
pretty simple, but verbose and ugly naming scheme. It's possible to write a
function that maps these names to much more usable names, but it looks like I
have to spell everything out, identifier by identifier. Is this true? Can I
get around it?
Modifying the actual modules is not an option for me.
Thanks,
David
