Mark H Weaver e7cf0457d7 Support => within case, and improve error messages for cond and case
* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (cond, case): Reimplement using syntax-case,
  with improved error messages and support for '=>' within 'case' as
  mandated by the R7RS.  Add warnings for duplicate case datums and
  case datums that cannot be meaningfully compared using 'eqv?'.

* module/system/base/message.scm (%warning-types): Add 'bad-case-datum'
  and 'duplicate-case-datum' warning types.

* test-suite/tests/syntax.test (cond, case): Update tests to reflect
  improved error reporting.  Add tests for '=>' within 'case'.

* test-suite/tests/tree-il.test (partial evaluation): Update tests to
  reflect changes in how 'case' is expanded.

* doc/ref/api-control.texi (Conditionals): Document '=>' within 'case'.

This directory contains documentation on the Guile core.         -*-text-*-

The documentation consists of the following manuals.

- The Guile Tutorial (guile-tut.texi) contains a tutorial introduction
  to using Guile.

- The Guile Reference Manual (guile.texi) contains (or is intended to
  contain) reference documentation on all aspects of Guile.

- The Revised^5 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme (r5rs.texi).

Please be aware that this is all very much work in progress (apart
from the Revised^5 Report).  Bug reports and contributions are
welcome!

The file `oldfmt.c' contains a function which can be used by
application writers to support both old-style and new-style error
format strings.

The `sources' directory includes some stuff relevant to the Guile
reference manual, and which may eventually be folded in to it.  It's
not immediately relevant, however, which is why it's not in this
directory.

The Revised^4 Report (r4rs.texi) is no longer in this distribution, as
it is completely superseded by the Revised^5 Report.  If you need to
consult R4RS, it is still widely available, for example at
http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/info/SchemeDocs/r4rs/.
