I have code[1] written in Racket which uses what I think are the
equivalent to Guile's dynamic states: parameterizations.

My code raises exceptions that contain the result of
`(current-parameterization)`[2].  It later handles those exceptions
and passes the parameterization to `call-with-parameterization`[3] in
order to access the value several parameters had before the exception
was raised.

It also accumulates different results of `(current-parameterization)`,
reorders them and for each one it passes the parameterization to
`call-with-parameterization` and calls other code[4].

3: File `pinaret/system.rkt`, procedure `generate`.
   File `pinaret/runtime.rkt`, procedure `print-error/params`.

4: File `pinaret/base.rkt`, there are many examples here, look for
   `(current-parameterization)`.
