Gauche Scheme or Racket:

(use srfi-1) ;; span for Gauche
or
(require srfi/1) ;; span for Racket
(require srfi/8) ;; receive for Racket

(define b '((4 1) (4 2) (4 80) (3 3) (3 4) (2 1) (1 2) (0 1)))

(define (reduce-list xs)
(if (null? xs)
'()
(let ((k (caar xs)))
(receive (these those)
(span (lambda (ys) (equal? (car ys) k)) xs)
(cons (list k (apply + (map cadr these)))
(reduce-list those))))))

(reduce-list b)
===>
((4 83) (3 7) (2 1) (1 2) (0 1))

Using pattern-matching.

Gauche Scheme:

(use util.match)

(define (kons xs accum)
(match `(,xs ,accum)
[((a b) ((c d) z ...)) (=> no)
(if (equal? a c)
(cons (list a (+ b d)) z)
(no))]
[(y z) (cons y z)]))

(define (reduce-list xs) (fold-right kons '() xs))

(define b '((4 1) (4 2) (4 80) (3 3) (3 4) (2 1) (1 2) (0 1)))
