Thanks for the feedback.  It's always good to hear the experiences of
people writing additional implementations.

The SRFI document is normative, i.e. it is what defines the correct
behavior.  Sometimes, as in this case, the sample implementation differs.
If it does more than the document calls for, that's nice, but doesn't mean
that other implementations must do so in order to conform.  It is does less
than what the document calls for, that's a bug in the sample implementation.

John and Arvydas, do you have any comments?
