	So I would like to retract my earlier statement in support of the
	simpler semantics.

    One man's simple is another's complex... could you be more precise?
    Which one do you like now?

And the winner is...

    Alternative A (Norman's and mine and S&ICP's):

	(define (foo . rest) . body)

      means the same thing as

	(define foo (lambda rest . body))
