Two patches were proposed in this bug report, and this patch (looking
quite similar) was applied a month later.

commit 0a5cfeeecb9e1038f9df3b34b61b797e56213a7b
Author:     Stefan Monnier <monnier@iro.umontreal.ca>

    * lisp/progmodes/scheme.el (scheme-mode-syntax-table): Remove hack for
    #; comments.
    (scheme-syntax-propertize, scheme-syntax-propertize-sexp-comment):
    New functions.
    (scheme-mode-variables): Set syntax-propertize-function instead of
    font-lock-syntactic-face-function.
    (scheme-font-lock-syntactic-face-function): Delete.

However, the original test case still fails:

(Or perhaps it fails again?)  At least, in Emacs 28, putting that into
/tmp/foo.sch and hitting `C-M-f' gives me an error.
