[plt-scheme] symbols redefined in SRFIs

Perhaps not everybody always uses srfi-1.  Some people are just happy with
their own versions of libraries.  Only when SRFI gets standarised 
(whatever this means) implementations will forced to conform to it.
Remember Scheme is a little bit older then srfi (about 30 years to my 
count)
