A week has passed with no objections. I've pushed the original patch.

Sure. I personally never felt the need for rename on export and
wanted to add this just as a base to build R7RS support on.
Bindings and aliases are so easily done in Scheme that it

Maybe this already works with the current patch, but can we support:
(export (rename foo bar))
As well as the version with the colon (suffix keyword notation) on the end of
export?
Seems like that would be best for symmetry with the import form.
(Sorry, it’s just aesthetics, I know.)

Why not add it to the regular "export" form? It's already extendable,
as it has syntax:
This patch adds a new special form to explicitly export renamed bindings
from a module:
(export/rename (OLD NEW) ...)
This is mainly useful for supporting R7RS renaming export specifiers (not
done yet).
I wanted first to apply the renamings when creating the module structure,
but it
