Re: run-outline-bigloo.scm fails

Hello!

Both errors are of the kind:

> # *** ERROR:bigloo:ssax:xml->sxml:expand
> # error occured while expansing the call -- 
> (ssax:make-parser NEW-LEVEL-SEED (lambda (el ...

That is, the error has occurred while expanding the macro
ssax:make-parser. Alas, that is the problem with Bigloo. Bigloo does
_not_ fully support R5RS macros. It uses the macro-expander by Dorai
Sitaram, who specifically says that his macro-expander is intended
only for simple syntax-rules (and doesn't support nested macros nor full
hygiene). Now that Gambit 4 supports syntax-rules to the fullest
extent (via R. Kent Dybvig's portable macro-expander), Bigloo is the only
major Scheme system out there that does not comply with R5RS regarding
the macros.

	Cheers,
