It's definitely not a problem in string-trim or string-trim-both:

#;2> (string-trim "x    abc" char-whitespace? 1)
"abc"
#;3> (string-trim-both "x   abc   " char-whitespace? 1)
"abc"

The bug fix given in
<http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-13/post-mail-archive/msg00007.html>
should also be applied, as it is still present in the Chicken version.

Someone should also verify that Chicken's definition
of `let-optionals*` is the correct one for SRFI 13; see
<http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-13/post-mail-archive/msg00008.html>,
<http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-13/post-mail-archive/msg00009.html>,
and <http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-13/post-mail-archive/msg00010.html>
for discussion.
