I like it!

Best practice suggests that ‘delete’ should be bound (info "(guile)
Syntax Rules"):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
   Although literals can be unbound, usually they are bound to allow
them to be imported, exported, and renamed.  *Note Modules::, for more
information on imports and exports.  In Guile there are a few standard
auxiliary syntax definitions, as specified by R6RS and R7RS:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Now, if we export a new ‘delete’ binding from here, it’ll annoy
everyone.  So perhaps we can keep the srfi-1 ‘delete’ and re-export it,
as done in (guix build utils)… though that situation is also annoying
because we get warnings saying that it collides with core ‘delete’.

Dunno, give it a try!
