Peter Bex writes (slightly edited):
Improve the wording in the description of string->number from:
"If string is not a syntactically valid notation for a number, string->number returns #f."
to something like:
"If string is not a syntactically valid notation for a number, or would result in a number that the implementation cannot represent, string->number returns #f."
I'd also like to suggest adding this line to the end:
"The string->number procedure always returns a number or #f; it never raises an exception due to the content of the string."
Treating as editorial.
