Is that the issue you are reporting?

Marks such as this (e.g. ‘FIXME’, ‘TODO’) appear in many places as a
reminder to fix or work on something in the future.  I suppose in this
case it is to cross-reference with the definition of ‘set!’, which
appears absent except for a brief note under _rnrs base_, and informal
definition in _Hello Scheme!_

Generally, I don't think we also need bug reports to track this.
