What I meant here is that it does compose with the built-in syntax. Of course, the %read-hash-procedures API by itself doesn't automatically compose if multiple user-defined modules use it to introduce new syntax. (If these modules take care to preserve previously installed procedures, it can compose.) The API you suggest would compose much easier, but to me it feels like just another specialized solution. What we would really need is something like Ludovic's guile-reader. But I won't be stubborn regarding this. If someone else wants to implement another way of supporting #!optional and #!rest that is fine by me. I regard my diff simply as a bug fix and cleanup (removing unreachable code).
