My request was that the naming and functionality match SRFI-44, not that this SRFI provide an implementation which portable works with SRFI-44. You're right the latter isn't possible (which I don't see as a problem, since users don't create the implementations). But matching the interface keeps datastructures consistent and makes it simpler for implementors to bind into their SRFI-44 collection sets. Scott
