Hi, I found a small error in the docs for the pattern matching module:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Pattern-Matching.html
There should be no "exp" in these argument lists:
Scheme Syntax: match-lambda exp clause1 clause2 …
Scheme Syntax: match-lambda* exp clause1 clause2 …
The attached patch fixes this.
