Changed to `queue-set-list!` and `queue-set-first-last!`.

In my test suite of Schemes, the most limited is RScheme with a limit
of 998 arguments.  See <http://trac.sacrideo.us/wg/wiki/ApplyArgsLimit>
for details.

I'm tracking `list-concatenate` from SRFI 1, `string-concatenate` from
SRFI 13, and `vector-concatenate` from SRFI 43.
