Subject: bug#39601: srfi library naming in r7rs

Well, as someone who has written a lot of macros https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-206/ is a fantastic utility SRFI. It allows several libraries to define the same aux syntax (say like srfi-26's <>) without having collisions.

That is not strictly what you were looking for if I understand the patch correctly, though.
