Thanks.  There's a lot of interesting stuff in big-scheme.txt.
However, I wanted to be able port code among MacGambit, S48, and STk
without too much misery.  So for non-R4RS extensions, I tend to write
to the SLIB interfaces.  In the case of FIFO queues, I was able to use
the S48 native queues to implement that interface without too much
bother.  This was an exception, however.  Too bad.  I guess my only
hope for really portable Scheme code is for one implementation to kill
off all the others :-(
