The R7RS-large language will have a pattern matching library.

The trouble with SRFI-42 is that the loops are implemented using
assignment, which is typically less efficient in Scheme than rebinding.
As a result, I expect that some variant of foof-loop, either Alex Shinn's
or Taylor Campbell's, will become part of R7RS-large. The main difference
between the two of them is the API for adding new loop constructs.
