defect

Several SRFIs, R6RS, and most Scheme implementations support some sort of uniform packed integer vectors. In particular, these are necessary for efficient binary I/O, and for memory mapping, so WG2 will certainly want them.

Do we provide a syntax and basic API for these in WG1?

See BlobsAndSRFI4SnellPym for some thoughts on this (regardless of which WG1 supports what bits)
