It's confusing if an SRFI exports identifiers that are not defined in
the text of some other SRFI.
I sympathize with the desire to have more convenient libraries to
import, instead of importing a whole bundle of SRFIs. But this is IMHO a
misuse of the SRFI process. This is yet another problem that comes back
to the basic fact that SRFI is not good at addressing evolving needs.
