Lists passed to C?

[Robert A. Uhl]

I've a function declared as below:

SCM scm_mapobject_set_owners(SCM object, SCM owners_list);

It's meant to be called from scheme as:

(trav-mapobject-set-owners obj '(object object...))

The C function does get as its second argument a list (checked using
SCM_NIMP && SCM_CONSP).  But its value is a symbol, not the symbol's
value.  I'm guessing that this is due to the fact that the list is a
list of symbols--that's fine.

But how do I reference that value?  I've been reading source and
header files and am no wiser than when I started.

It seems to me that this'd be a great thing for the documentation...
Perhaps I should start writing down some notes.

Don't think of it as being outnumbered.  Think of it as having a wide
target selection.
