R6RS provides libraries for limited type arithmetic on fixnums only and flonums only. Do we want these?

Yes.

I would punt these to WG2, they don't belong in the core language, which ought to treat numbers as numbers, rather than have any concept of a limited size number.

The WG voted to pass this to WG2.
