Is there a good reason to do it this way?  Or could we build racket
with regular chez-scheme afterwards?

I think I got pinged for this due to the emacs side, which as far as I
can see LGTM.  I haven't looked at all of the patch however, let alone
the series.

As usual for these large rackets (pun intended), I do wonder whether
it'd be possible to split the commits into more reviewable hunks.  For
instance, I don't think chez-scheme-for-system would need to be
adjusted yet – it could simply return chez-scheme and then in the next
commit be deprecated or dropped.

Cheers
