I expect many people don't care about these differences.  Certainly my
suggestion is just to add the functions in SRFI-1 to scheme/list,
possibly changing the semantics to match the functions already in
scheme/list.  It isn't necessary to advertise scheme/list as actually
implementing SRFI-1.  My point is that now scheme/list is fairly
ubiquitous (far more the default than (lib "list.ss") was) , it should
be more complete.
