(rename (...) (<id> <id2>))) In any Scheme that I know of, this will result in the same binding with different names for any given "phase." You may get different bindings at different levels, but you will get the same binding at the same level. I'm not surprised. What I would like to do is to get the report to provide a mechanism that will always work. That can be done for (import (...) (rename (...) (<id> <id2>))) by discussing levels and putting constraints on how many times the library is instantiated. The 'alias' form avoids all that, which seems like a better fit for R7RS. -Richard Kelsey _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
