Since modules were supposed to be one of the two major language issues for R6RS,
does this perhaps suggest that it is too soon for R6RS, that the mandate
has changed, or that it was never clear to begin with? ;-)

Anyway, it seems that R6RS libraries solve the same problems as the PLT
module system (which is fine).  Would that be a accurate statement?
