[trimming out guile-user]
For me, here is the list of symbols with no C counterpart, followed by a
commented list of all of them.
Symbols that a non-C program would need to interact with Guile:
SCM_BOOL_F
SCM_BOOL_T
SCM_ELISP_NIL
SCM_EOF_VAL
SCM_EOL
SCM_UNBOUND
SCM_UNDEFINED
SCM_UNSPECIFIED
Any ideas on how we should expose these?

These have scm_dynwind_block_asyncs() and related. I removed the one
place in the docs where they were erroneously mentioned.

Not needed; these are just the numbers 1 through 7 and 0. See "Handling
Errors" in the manual.
> SCM_ASSERT_TYPE
There is scm_wrong_type_arg and scm_wrong_type_arg_msg
> SCM_BOOL_F
> SCM_BOOL_T
These are needed I guess?
> SCM_BYTEVECTOR_CONTENTS
Probably we need scm_c_bytevector_contents() or so

Humm, I don't know. I would rather not expose these to other languages.
> SCM_ELISP_NIL
> SCM_EOF_VAL
> SCM_EOL
These are needed, too.
> SCM_FRAME_DATA_ADDRESS
> SCM_FRAME_LOWER_ADDRESS
> SCM_FRAME_UPPER_ADDRESS
Not these.
> SCM_GLOBAL_KEYWORD
> SCM_GLOBAL_VARIABLE
> SCM_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_INIT
> SCM_REGISTER_PROC
> SCM_VARIABLE_INIT
These are snarfing-related and unneeded.
> SCM_GPROC
> SCM_HOOKP
Not these, I don't think.
> SCM_IMP
Not this one, hopefully.
> SCM_NEWSMOB
> SCM_NEWSMOB2
> SCM_NEWSMOB3
> SCM_RETURN_NEWSMOB
> SCM_RETURN_NEWSMOB2
> SCM_RETURN_NEWSMOB3
There is scm_new_smob and scm_new_double_smob. I have changed the
documentation to recommend them instead.
> SCM_PTAB_ENTRY
> SCM_PTOBNUM
Not these.
> SCM_SIMPLE_VECTOR_LENGTH
> SCM_SIMPLE_VECTOR_REF
> SCM_SIMPLE_VECTOR_SET
Adequately handled by scm_c_vector interface
> SCM_SMOB_PREDICATE
I don't know.
> SCM_TICK
You can run scm_async_click instead; though I guess it should be called
scm_async_tick.
> SCM_UNBNDP
A comparison to SCM_UNDEFINED is sufficient.
> SCM_UNBOUND
> SCM_UNDEFINED
> SCM_UNSPECIFIED
Needed.
