Hi,

Weak vectors are documented in ‘6.17.3.2  Weak vectors’.
However, they are not available from the (guile) module
and that section does not document which module needs to
be imported to use the procedures from that section.

I only found the required module (ice-9 weak-vector) by doing

$ git grep -F 'make-weak-vector'

It would be nice to document the module name, and not only
the procedures theirselves.

Greetings,
Maxime.
