[racket] SRFI-34's guard
The SRFI-34 port is old and was defined to recognize `else` as an
unbound identifier, compatible with the old `mzscheme` language.
I've pushed a repair to make `srfi/34` work with `racket` (but
maintaining backward compatibility, too).
Meanwhile, you can work around the problem by using `#t` instead of
`else` (as you probably already realize).
Thanks for the report!
