I just pushed a change that restored everything to the way it was.
I'll try to figure out a way to implement string-head! that is portable.
Why do we need something portable? What's wrong with this?
(define (string-head! string end)
(guarantee-string string 'STRING-HEAD!)
(guarantee-substring-end-index end
(string-maximum-length string)
'STRING-HEAD!)
(set-string-maximum-length! string end)
;; SET-STRING-MAXIMUM-LENGTH! has no effect in some implementations
;; of the microcode. If so, just copy the head.
(if (fix:= end (string-maximum-length string))
string
(%substring string 0 end)))
