All officially released Windows binaries are built with makefile.vc, not 
CMake.  The only officially released Windows binary available on the 
Chicken homepage is for Chicken 2.3.  "csi -R srfi-1" works fine for that.

So when you say "now it doesn't," exactly what source tree version and 
build method are you referring to?  Most recent pull from Darcs, using 
CMake to build?  Or something else?

The srfi-* units are part of libchicken and definitely built into csi.  
If it's a CMake-specific problem, then it's probably a quoting problem.  
BTW I find the current VC++ CMake build is completely broken, it won't 
build.  I need to verify whether these problems are CMake-specific.  
Just as soon as I kick the CMake tarball capability out the door, in a 
matter of hours.
