Surely the Scheme API will not be just a simple copy of the Python API.
Even if that is the intent it will not be true since I think it is
unreasonable to require all Python changes to come with Scheme patches
as well.
I think the Scheme docs have to just be a whole separate section
spelling everything out in Scheme terms.
Though I would like to say now that this isn't really Scheme we're
talking about, but Guile. There are differences. I think it would be
best to be explicit about that in the docs.
