I'd say that we could keep it simple and hardcode a
list in libguile/read.c.  Google Codesearch and
koders.com show that there are only a handful of the 
Emacs coding aliases being used in scheme code, or
in code in general.

Or, to be more elegant, initialize a global variable
that contains an alist that maps Emacs coding aliases
to their standard counterparts, and add a function
to allow other pairs to be added, I guess.
