Meta: I seem to be receiving your mails with this really strange line
wrapping.  It's been this way for a while, and it makes it difficult to
read your mails.  Would you mind taking a look at your editor and
setting the fill column to 72 characters?  Thanks :)

Into what?

Have you tried having your srfi-72 module export a binding for unsyntax?

I would prefer not to include it in the core; in my ignorance I do not
see the need, especially if it can be implemented in a library.  Of
course it may make sense to bundle a srfi-72 implementation with guile,
but ideally we can do so without affecting the core.
