Bah. Could we provide our own reader? I'd much rather this be addressed in Guile (or failing that,=20 transparently by Guix) than have to deal with some magical symbol.=20 IIRC that was the argument for using *unspecified* in the first=20 place, and I think it makes sense. This looks more like an unexplored oversight than a well-reasoned=20 restriction to me.
