* Changes to Scheme functions and syntax
** Syntax-case, present in the snapshots, is absent from this release.
syntax-case is a powerful hygenic macro-expansion facility designed
and implemented by R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb, Carl
Bruggeman at Indiana University. Some Guile snapshots included this
macro expander as a Guile module, but we cannot distribute it, because
the authors have not assigned the code's copyright to the Free
Software Foundation.
However, it would be fine to distribute this as a separate package,
which users can download and install separately. I hope someone
produces such a package.
** Multi-byte strings have been removed, as have multi-byte and wide
ports. We felt that these were the wrong approach to
internationalization support.
