[Scheme-reports] 6.13 I/O

Call-with-port not closing the port in exceptional situations is a
shame. As it is, the only thing you can do to close ports in
exceptional situations is to use dynamic-wind. Nasty.
Why allow current-input-port to be a binary port? I would not do that.
Likewise I don't see why read-u8 and friends would default to a textual
port.
Otherwise things seem fine to me.
