I'd minimally like to do my rename to SCM_SCM and SCM_WORD before that
happens.
Also, I'll re-suggest that we do two-branch development. I'd rather get
the rest of the docstrings in before forking as maintaining those
changes between branches would be a chore, but I'd need more help from
others to get all the docstrings done within the next week or so.
