Subject: [2.0.5] ‘%port-conversion-strategy’
	broken & undocumented
Date: Mon, 14 May 2012 17:23:51 +0200

‘%port-conversion-strategy’ is not documented, and its relation to
‘scm_to_stringn’ is not documented either.

Worse:

  scheme@(guile-user)> (fluid-set! %port-conversion-strategy 'error)
  Segmentation fault

Indeed, an integer is expected:

  scheme@(guile-user)> (fluid-ref %port-conversion-strategy)
  $2 = 1

Fix to expect a symbol like ‘set-port-conversion-strategy!’?
