I'll be happy to merge them into the reference implementation.

Hi Per,

This implementation of SRFI-64 is not Ikarus specific, but is part of a project to implement R6RS-portable implementations of various srfis:

https://code.launchpad.net/~scheme-libraries-team/scheme-libraries/srfi

So I think they're aiming for not including implementation specific things. It's conceivable that some extension which only assumed R6RS could be added, but the drawback is that somebody making use of that extension might be surprised if they port the code to a different implementation of SRFI-64 an then *not* see the extension behaviour.
