Hi Felix,

The following modification of your code works, but is generative, and so
probably misses the point of what you were trying to achieve.  To get
nongenerativity, the underlying SRFI-9-like interface should probably
be passed an extra identifier to be used as tag, instead of creating a
unique tag as done below.

Andre
