The meaning of braces in various Schemes

http://trac.sacrideo.us/wg/wiki/BracketsBraces shows the meaning
of square brackets and curly braces in my Scheme test suite, which
currently includes 45 implementations.  Only Chibi and RScheme currently
do something special with braces; the other implementations treat them
as either synonyms for parentheses, lexical syntax errors, or identifier
characters.
