Great thing to do -- this adds quite some flexibility that can be put to
good use.  

One thing about the implementation, though: I don't quite like that
`%current-warning-port' (as already hinted at in the source) is intended
to be private (but isn't, but that's another, harder, issue), however
there is no way to redirect the warnings to another port for a dynamic
extent save for using that (assumably) private API.  How about
(especially since it looks like R7RS will include a subset of it in the
small language) moving SRFI 39 into the core and using that?
