Bundled libraries

BH is bundled with a set of general purpose libraries, including:

SRFI 1 (list processing), 13 (string), 14 (character sets), 16 (case-lambda support), 19 (time data types and procedures), 95 (sorting)
pregexp, hash digestion, base64 handling, UUID generator
HTTP client, server, URI and session variable handling
XML<->SXML routines
FIFO queue, mailbox, weight balanced tree, erlang-style list matcher
String, u8vector, list, exception handling helper libraries
let-optionals support

BH's core is completely independent of the bundled libraries, and can be separated from them without any modifications.

See the documentation for more information.
