These theoretical discussions are all very well, but not if our
conclusion is that scheme is a lost cause (and I know I'm quoting a
little out of context.) I think the original message is worth
re-emphasizing - if you are creating an interface to some set of
system services, take a look around and see if there is a popular
implementation already out there whose interface you can mimic.
