    Here's the abstract:

    Many Scheme implementations have keyword arguments but they have not
    been widely standardized. This SRFI defines the macros
    keyword-lambda and keyword-call.  They can be used identically in
    every major implementation currently in use, making it safe to use
    keyword arguments in portable code.  The macros expand to native
    keyword arguments in Schemes that have them, letting programmers mix
    portable code and implementation-specific code.
