For what it is worth, R7RS WG1 draft 6 says "If more than one strings have the same length, when the shortest string runs out."string is given and not allstring-for-each terminates Since R7RS is just going to undo the change, it hardly seems worth changing, in my opinion. http://www.scheme-reports.org/2012/working-group-1.html -Mike Gran
