eliminating some warnings.
* unif.c, strports.c, print.c, options.c: Fix some warnings on
mis-use of SCM/long
* gc.c, gc.h: Added scm_return_first_int(), and added comment re:
what the scm_return_first* functions do.
name for a Scheme object (now a void*), and SCM as 32 bit word for
storing tags and immediates (now a long int). Introduced
SCM_ASWORD and SCM_ASSCM for conversion. Fixed various dubious
code in the process: arbiter.c (use macros), unif.c (scm_array_p),
removals from Dirk Hermann.
* alist.c: Rename formals to match the parameter names in the
documentation, updates to documentation. Thanks Dirk Hermann!
* scm_validate.h: Added SCM_VALIDATE_THREAD.
* *.c: Remove SCM_NIMP(X) when it is an extraneous pre-test given
that SCM_FOOP macros all now include SCM_NIMP in their expansion.
This simplifies lots of code, making it far more readable.
prototypes.
* eval.c: Make scm_m_mody's 3rd argument be a const char *, not a
char *. ANSI prototypes caught this.
* strorder.c: Use GUILE_PROC1 for the couple SCM_PROC1 expansions
that I missed.
* scm_validate.h: Use SCM_BOOLP for validating bools. Do not
expand macros if SCM_DOCSTRING_SNARF.
options.c): Rename RECKLESS -> SCM_RECKLESS, CAUTIOUS ->
SCM_CAUTIOUS; this way, 1) there's only one version of each flag
to define (we used to have both RECKLESS and SCM_RECKLESS), and 2)
if we want to use them in a header file some day, we can. (Thanks
to Michael Livshin.)

significantly in 1997, but only had copyright years for 1996.
Also, change name of copyright holder on some from Mikael
Djurfeldt to Free Software Foundation; he has signed papers
assigning the changes to the FSF.
old scm_sysintern but doesn't take a second value argument.
(scm_sysintern): Now uses scm_sysintern0.
(scm_sysintern_no_module_lookup): Renamed to
scm_sysintern0_no_module_lookup and doesn't take a second value
argument any longer.
* symbols.h (scm_sysintern0: Added declaration.
* options.c (scm_init_opts): Use scm_sysintern0 instead of
scm_sysintern when interning option keys. Otherwise we risk
destroying the values of already interned variables.
* symbols.c (scm_sym2vcell): Bugfix: Treat definedp as
scheme-level boolean (use SCM_NFALSEP).
* backtrace.c (scm_init_backtrace): Make Scheme-level variable
`the-last-stack'.
(scm_backtrace): New function. (C version of old function from
boot-9.scm) Motivation: Make it possible to display backtraces
without depending on boot-9.scm. (I'm uncertain if this
motivation is good enough...)
* root.h (scm_root_state): Add member the_last_stack_var.
(scm_the_stack_var): Defined to scm_root->the_last_stack_var.
* root.c (mark_root): Mark scm_the_last_stack_var.
* init.c (scm_start_stack): Initialize scm_the_last_stack_var to
SCM_BOOL_F.
(Mostly prefixing with SCM_.) Renamed "debug-options" -->
"debug-options-interface". See commentary in options.c.
* options.h, options.c: Options now have documentation strings.
Also added a long explanatory commentary.
