WG1 - Core

description

The standard input and output ports which `current-input-port` and `current-output-port` are initially bound to are not opened explicitly.  They default to character ports.  Should they be replaceable with equivalent binary ports using the following procedures?

  * (standard-input-is-binary!)
  * (standard-output-is-binary!)

It is an error to call either of these if the corresponding `current-{input,output}-port` is not the original value, or if any I/O has been performed on them, or if they cannot reasonably be treated as binary.
