Does anybody know then why the Guile manual replicates sections of r5rs instead of just pointing to them? It's redundant and it leads to this kind of problems. If Guile is Scheme version blah with some additions and some omissions, shouldn't the manual just document the additions and the omissions? I don't mean to whine or lecture. I am just wondering. Thanks!
