What about loading alternative implementation of a feature,
such as falling back onto the reference implementation of a SRFI if the
Scheme
you're using doesn't provide one? I actually think this would ease writing
libraries likes SLIB or Nausicaa that support multiple Scheme
implementations
and have to Spackle the gaps in features between them.
