How much work would it be to support R7RS .sld imports, such that
(import (foo bar baz))
loads a (define-library ...) form from "{root}/foo/bar/baz.sld" for the
first matching {root} in the load path? This appears to be the emerging
standard for R7RS imports.
I ported this program
<https://github.com/srfi-explorations/missing-links> to six R7RS
implementations (one of them being Chicken). If you read
"compile-missing-chicken" script it's slightly more complex than the
other implementations: to load "chibi/html-parser.sld" it has "-I chibi
-prologue chibi/html-parser.sld" in the csc command line. Since it's
only one library it's no trouble at all, but if there were more libs
each of them would require its own -I and -prologue options.
If someone wants to implement this, I volunteer to be an enthusiastic
tester.
