If we have a flat alist, we might as well use a plist which leads to
more Lispy constructor syntax, similar to keyword arguments:

(make-foreign-error
  'error-set errno
  'code 2
  'symbol ENOENT
  'scheme-procedure open-file
  'foreign-interface open
  'message "open-file called open: ..."
  'arguments '("not-a-valid-filename" 0 428)
  'heritage "SRFI 170")
