+
+       * init.c (scm_start_stack): Don't initialize scm_progargs here.
+       (scm_boot_guile): Call scm_set_program_arguments here, later than
+       the old initialization.
+
+*      * init.c: (scm_boot_guile, scm_boot_guile_1):  New, simplified
+       initialization procedure.
+       - Delete in, out, err arguments; there are other perfectly good
+       ways to override these when desired.
+       - Delete result argument; this function shouldn't ever return.
+       - Rename init_func argument to main_func, for less confusion.
+       - Delete boot_cmd argument; main_func is more general.
+       -Add 'closure' argument, to help people pass data to main_func
+       without resorting to global variables.
+       - Abort if reentered; don't bother returning an error code.
+       - Call scm_init_standard_ports to set up the default/current
+       standard ports; no need to pass them to scm_start_stack.
+       - Remove code to evaluate the boot_cmd, and start the repl; let
+       the user do something like that in main_func if they want.
+       - Remove code to package up a return value; main_func can do any
+       of that as needed.
+       - Call exit (0), instead of returning.
+       (scm_start_stack): Don't initialize the I/O ports here; that's
+       weird.  Delete in, out, err arguments.  Move guts to
+       scm_init_standard_ports, scm_stdio_to_port.
+       (scm_init_standard_ports): New function, to set up current and
+       default standard ports.
+       (scm_start_stack, scm_restart_stack): Make these static.
+       * init.h (scm_boot_guile): Adjust declaration.
+       (scm_start_stack, scm_restart_stack): Remove externally
+       visible declarations for these.
+       (enum scm_boot_status): Removed; now scm_boot_guile never returns.
+       
+*      * fports.c (scm_stdio_to_port): New function.  Its guts used to be
+       written out several times in scm_start_stack.
+       * fports.h: New declaration for the above.
+       
+*      * feature.c (scm_set_program_arguments): New function.
+       * feature.h: New declaration for the above.
+
+       * ports.c: Formatting tweak.
