Thanks for the tip on how to properly reply to a bugreport. I will make
sure I get that right next time.

By the way, I tested the method you used manually on 2.0.x today and it
fixed the discrepancy with R6RS there too. Might consider patching that
branch too. Hopefully no one has been depending on the non-truncating
behavior.
