Thank you for the answers below.
I have four follow-up questions to the answers below:

1. it appears to me that scribble/base does not support a section* command.  
I found on github a file named "unnumbered.rkt", which looks it defines a 
section* command.
Is this what is meant by 
 "[*] It is possible that the supported unnumbered style is only in the git 
head of scribble."
in answer to question 1 below?

2. Where/how can I set the option to use number-style in the bibliography?
I assumed it was an option in (define-cite....), but I cannot figure out how
to specify it correctly.

Like in latex, just use an unnumbered[*] section labeled "Abstract".

See end of message for a sample library.

This is a bug in the underlying sigplan style. I have to fix this over and over 
again myself. 

[*] It is possible that the supported unnumbered style is only in the git head 
of scribble.
