| But ARRAY-SET! et alia conflict, too. The argument you give for

Excellent point! I will restore the make-array name and put this

The make-array arguments are different from the same-named procedure
in SRFI-25. Type dispatch on the first argument to make-array could
support both SRFIs simultaneously.
