I=E2=80=99d like to do this, but I=E2=80=99m pretty bad at naming things.=
  How about a
new module =E2=80=9Cdatastructures.scm=E2=80=9D where this could comforta=
bly fit in?  Or
is this too vague?  Or should it go in the equally vague =E2=80=9Ccode.sc=
m=E2=80=9D
(which actually is for tools operating on source code)?
