Once you discover that the default constructor for a struct is just a simple procedure that was generated for you, it's not that big of deal to just make your own and export it like this:
(provide (except-out (struct-out fish) fish) (rename-out (make-fish fish))) All the code relying on it will still work. Except I guess if you pass through different phase levels, it becomes a bit more complicated because you have a syntax attached at compile-time to the identifier. But that's another issue. Correct me if I'm wrong.
