Just to be clear, when I wish for R6RS to be shot in the gut and left to 
die painfully in a ditch, I mean that in the utmost nice and respectful 
way. :)  R5RS was getting close to a gem (with a few warts and glaring 
omissions), and R6RS is this big thing that PLT ultimately did not 
embrace.  With the effect that people have tended to start trying to do 
R6RS with PLT tools, but then wonder why there are rough edges and the 
PLT documentation is mostly full of these other things that don't seem 
to work in their R6RS program.
