Thanks.  I've added an r5rs-i/o library to 
draft/corelib/library-contents.html.

Still, specifying 'display' in the r5rs-i/o library shouldn't be too 
difficult, since it doesn't need to be specified any better than the 
version in r5rs, right?  Despite its shortcomings, there's quite a bit 
of code out there that uses display.
