Rationale: GUILE already supports a number of escapes not defined in the
Scheme standard.  Emacs Lisp modes and derivative modes treat opening
parens in the first column of a file specially, resynchronizing function
boundaries.  The respective manual entry states:

<URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Left-Margin-Paren.html>

Being able to escape opening parens makes it possible to write
Emacs-friendly Guile code.

I went ahead and pushed this to stable-2.0, commit
5af307de43e4b65eec7f235b48a8908f2a00f134.  It'll be in Guile 2.0.12.
I'm closing this ticket.

     Thanks,
       Mark
