Perhaps you (or someone else on the list?) can think of a better name
that can be prefixed, to remove all confusion? Ideally it'd be something
which has been done before in Scheme, or failing that, something people
would have absolutely no preconceptions about.

"clone-<type>" would fit the latter description, or how about
"make-duplicate-<type>"?


I'll also propose transmogrify-<type> and
make-duplicate-with-ethicator-<type>.


a clone by any other name is no defeat.
