Err, sorry, it was me who volunteered the task to improve Guile's
array and uniform array implementaiton. I have done some survey but
did other things in the last 2-3 weeks.

The biggest problem is that no one seems to use it. ;-)
Seriously, I have looked in some (major) projects using Guile
(gnucache, Lilypond, TeXmacs, Guppi) and found that none of them use
array and uniform array.
% find gnucash-1.5.95 lilypond-1.4.0 GNOME/guppi3 TeXmacs-0.3.3.15-src -name '*.scm'
-print | wc -l
187
% find gnucash-1.5.95 lilypond-1.4.0 GNOME/guppi3 TeXmacs-0.3.3.15-src -name '*.scm'
-exec grep '(string?' {} \; | wc -l
85
% find gnucash-1.5.95 lilypond-1.4.0 GNOME/guppi3 TeXmacs-0.3.3.15-src -name '*.scm'
-exec grep '(array?' {} \; | wc -l
0
% find gnucash-1.5.95 lilypond-1.4.0 GNOME/guppi3 TeXmacs-0.3.3.15-src -name '*.scm'
-exec grep '(uniform' {} \; | wc -l
0
As far as I have searched the mail archives, there's no specification
for Guile's (uniform) array. So it's difficult to determine how it
should behave and what is correct.
