* module/system/repl/server.scm: Import (ice-9 match) and (srfi srfi-1).
  (*open-sockets*): Add comment.  This is now a list of pairs with a
  'force-close' procedure in the cdr.
  (close-socket!): Add comment noting that it is unsafe to call this
  from another thread.
  (add-open-socket!): Add 'force-close' argument, and put it in the cdr
  of the '*open-sockets*' entry.
  (stop-server-and-clients!): Use 'match'.  Remove the first element
  from *open-sockets* immediately.  Call the 'force-close' procedure
  instead of 'close-socket!'.
  (errs-to-retry): New variable.
  (run-server): Add a pipe, used in the 'force-close' procedure to
  cleanly shut down the server.  Put the server socket into non-blocking
  mode.  Use 'select' to monitor both the server socket and the pipe.
  Don't call 'add-open-socket!' on the client-socket.  Close the pipe
  and the server socket cleanly when we're asked to shut down.
  (serve-client): Call 'add-open-socket!' with a 'force-close' procedure
  that cancels the thread.  Set the thread cleanup handler to call
  'close-socket!', instead of calling it in the main body.

* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (REPL Servers): Add a caveat to the manual
  entry for 'stop-servers-and-clients!'.

fb7dd00169 Deprecate general "uniform-vector" interface
* libguile/uniform.h:

  (scm_uniform_vector_to_list)
  (scm_uniform_vector_elements, scm_uniform_vector_writable_elements):
  Deprecate.  This interface lacked both generality and specificity.
  The general replacement is array-length, array-ref, and friends on the
  scheme side, or the array handle interface on the C side.  On the
  specific side of things, there are the specific bytevector, srfi-4,
  and bitvector interfaces.
