        * srfi-modules.texi (SRFI-1 Searching): In break, note conflict with
        binding established by `while'.

     Note that the name `break' conflicts with the `break' binding
     established by `while' (*note while do::).  Applications wanting
     to use `break' from within a `while' loop will need to make a new
     define under a different name.
