| The discussion has convinced me that I was wrong, and some
| change is required. I guess the intent wasn't as clear as I
| thought. So here is a new version, which is essentially Kent
| Pitman's version with Bill Rozas's final paragraph.
|
| -Richard
|
| (scheme-report-environment _version_) procedure
| (null-environment _version_) procedure
|
| _Version_ must be the exact integer 5, corresponding to this
| revision of the Scheme report (the Revised^5 Report on Scheme).
| SCHEME-REPORT-ENVIRONMENT returns a specifier for an environment that
| is empty except for all bindings defined in this report that are either
| required or both optional and supported by the implementation.
| NULL-ENVIRONMENT returns a specifier for an environment that is empty
| except for the (syntactic) bindings for all syntactic keywords
| defined in this report that are either required or both optional and
| supported by the implementation.
|
| Other values of _version_ can be used to specify environments
| matching past revisions of this report, but their support is not
| required. An implementation will signal an error if _version_
| is neither 5, nor another value supported by the implementation.
|
That looks good to me.
Kents?
