I guess I was hoping there would be a quick and easy solution. But if
you need funding for a project to solve this problem, its obviously
less than trivial. I'm glad to hear you plan to address this.
In the meantime, I wonder whether it wouldn't be preferable to make all
pairs and lists immutable, also in R6RS code. This wouldn't seem to
make PLT an incorrect implementation of R6RS, only a little bit
incomplete, by not yet supporting one of the standard libraries, (rnrs
mutable-pairs).
I'd much prefer to do without (rnrs mutable-pairs) than have it at the
cost of not being interoperable with PLT libraries.
