The patch looks good to me.

Cheers.

You code the empty list as (list). I typically code the empty list as '().

It there a preference? I suspect that we ought to be consistent, although it's not highly important. It could be part of the code janitor work,
though.

It's just something I noticed in a few places internally (these all
seem to be changes made by Nicolas) and thought it was clearer, though
admittedly I haven't been particularly consistent when deciding
between the two forms.  :)

According to R5RS, it is an error to modify a literal list.
If a function returns '(), the caller won't be allowed to
apply a modifying function on the result (eg. append!)

However, guile does not report modifying a literal list as an error,
and actually modifies it, so this is somewhat rhetorical.
