This is actually needed with the new string representation. See
strings.h:
Internal, low level interface to the character arrays
- Use scm_i_string_chars to get a pointer to the byte array of a
string for reading. Use scm_i_string_length to get the number of
bytes in that array. The array is not null-terminated.
- The array is valid as long as the corresponding SCM object is
protected but only until the next SCM_TICK. During such a 'safe
point', strings might change their representation.
The call to scm_lfwrite might do anything since the port might be a
softport, for example. Thus, we need to call scm_i_string_chars again
after each such call.
