I think there were no documentation strings before, and I don't think
that they would be extracted into user-readable documentations anyway,
which is a step backwards when the C implementation has them.

We'll need to think about that at some point of time in general.

I would still strongly suggest that the documentation strings are
maintained when stuff gets ported to Scheme: we'll likely make use of
them at some point of time, and they still help when actually reading
the code.

Now if I remember correctly, you diligently maintained every existing
documentation string (namely, none).  So we are not worse off than
before, and there is no point postponing matters on this front.
