* libguile/numbers.c (scm_rational_p): Return #f for infinities and
NaNs, per R6RS. Previously it returned #t for real infinities
and NaNs. They are still considered real by scm_real `real?'
however, per R6RS. Also simplify the code.
(scm_real_p): New implementation to reflect the fact that the
rationals and reals are no longer the same set. Previously it just
called scm_rational_p.
(scm_integer_p): Simplify the code.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add test cases for `rational?'
and `real?' applied to infinities and NaNs.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Real and Rational Numbers): Update docs to
reflect the fact that infinities and NaNs are no longer rational, and
that `real?' no longer implies `rational?'. Improve discussion of
infinities and NaNs.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries, and combine with an earlier entry about
infinities no longer being integers.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_inf_p, scm_finite_p, scm_nan_p): The domain of
these functions is the real numbers. Error on other input.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Reals and Rationals): Update the documentation
accordingly.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test ("finite?", "inf?"): Update tests.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_finite_p): Add new predicate `finite?' from
R6RS to guile core, which returns #t if and only if its argument is
neither infinite nor a NaN. Note that this is not the same as (not
(inf? x)) or (not (infinite? x)), since NaNs are neither finite nor
infinite.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add test cases for `finite?'.
* module/rnrs/base.scm: Import `inf?' as `infinite?' instead of
reimplementing it. Previously, the R6RS implementation of
`infinite?' did not detect non-real complex infinities, nor did it
throw exceptions for non-numbers. (Note that NaNs _are_ considered
numbers by scheme, despite their name).
Import `finite?' instead of reimplementing it. Previously, the R6RS
implementation of `finite?' returned #t for both NaNs and non-real
complex infinities, in violation of R6RS.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries, and reorganize existing numerics-related
entries together under one subheading.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Real and Rational Numbers): Add docs for
`finite?' and scm_finite_p.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_is_integer): Infinities are not integers, per
the R6RS.
(scm_even_p, scm_odd_p): Passing an infinity to even? or odd? is an
error.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test ("integer?"): Adapt test.
("expt"): Add tests for +inf.0 and -inf.0 exponents.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries.
Suggested by Noah Lavine <noah.b.lavine@gmail.com>.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (String Searching): Mention the return value of
`string-index', `string-index-right', and `string-rindex' when no
match is found.
* libguile/srfi-13.c (scm_string_index, scm_string_index_right,
scm_string_rindex): Adjust docstring accordingly.
* libguile/srfi-13.h:
* libguile/srfi-13.c (scm_string_filter, scm_string_delete): Swap
char_pred and s argument order, to comply with SRFI-13. There is a
back-compat shim that will detect programs that used the old,
erroneous interface, while giving a warning.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi: Update docs.
Because that probably isn't where people will look for it.
Thanks to Noah Lavine for the idea.

the regex doc (promoted one level) that used to be in api-data.texi.

entry for the new section.

* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Scheme Read): Fold all reader options
docs into this section. Undocument read-options-interface.
(Scheme Write): New section for `write' and `display', and the print
options. print-enable/print-disable are not documented, as there are
no boolean print options. print-options-interface is likewise
undocumented.

general. Move read options to Scheme Read, and print options to Scheme
Write.

Now the random number generator state can be obtained in external
(i.e. `read'/`write'-able) form via the new procedure
`random-state->external'. An externalized state can be reinstantiated by
calling `external->random-state'.
* libguile/random.c (scm_i_init_rstate_scm, scm_i_expose_rstate): New
internal functions.
* libguile/random.c (scm_c_make_rstate_scm, scm_external_to_random_state,
scm_random_state_to_external): New public functions.

`expose_rstate'.
* libguile/random.c (scm_init_random): Initialize the new fields in
`scm_the_rng'.

because it looks better in the DVI output. Exceptions are
- wide examples, which would cause overfull hboxes if they
used the bigger @lisp font
- very large examples, which may look too big at the @lisp size.
As a side effect, this allows compilation of literal bytevectors
