An empty (begin) is not valid r5rs syntax, yet it's now accepted by
both the interpreter and the compiler.
I don't like language extensions like this that offer little in the
way of utility but will screw up people porting code from gambit to
other implementations, in the same way that PLT's mapping of () to
'() screwed up people moving from PLT to gambit (I don't know whether
PLT still does that).
