Second the motion.

I've used scsh's implemetation of this SRFI a couple of times.  The
interface is a great deal more general than that provided by Perl's
split and join (as you might expect), so it can be a little tricky to
figure out how to implement split and join, but it's very well designed,
and thoroughly documented as well.

(Would that some of my co-workers could write even half as well as
Shivers!)
