1.3.1 Primitive; library; and optional features
-----------------------------------------------
It is required that every implementation of Scheme support all features
that are not marked as being "optional". Implementations are free to
omit optional features of Scheme or to add extensions, provided the
extensions are not in conflict with the language reported here. In
particular, implementations must support portable code by providing a
syntactic mode that preempts no lexical conventions of this report.
To aid in understanding and implementing Scheme, some features are
marked as "library". These can be easily implemented in terms of the
other, primitive, features. They are redundant in the strict sense of
the word, but they capture common patterns of usage, and are therefore
provided as convenient abbreviations.
