   FWIW I’d prefer to avoid auto-extracted documentation.  Presumably it
   would take a little bit of writing to provide more introductory text and
   transitions between the different parts of the API.

I understand.  It won't be difficult to fill things out this way.

   [placement]

   Perhaps under “Simple Generic Data Types”, after “Strings”.
   What do you think?

That doesn't seem right.  A gap-buffer is (conceptually) simple, but this
particular implementation is not generic in the sense that the only supported
fundamental type at the moment is the single ubyte (not even the character).

   [(simple) test cases file]

   Just drop it under ‘test-suite/tests’, with a ‘define-module’.  A few
   comments on what the tests do would be welcome too as it looks a bit
   dense at first sight.  :-)

OK.  I'll post a patch to guile-devel in the next few days.
