Turns out I was wrong.  Christian Jaeger has told me that Marc has  
finished integrating source code location information with the  
portable syntax-case implementation, so its integration is already  
really good.

What's left is a few pieces of code to work with portable syntax- 
case's modules a little easier, which isn't much to shout about.  I'll  
probably throw something together and put it up on the Dumping Grounds.

Christian has helped me start digging through the Gambit sources as  
well.
