Referencing R4RS section 7.1.5., R5RS section 7.1.6. and R7RS section 7.1.6. ...
For (define ...) expressions of the form
(define (<variable> . <formal>) <body>)
Is a BNF/EBNF description of the above form missing in R4/5/7RS?

In my copy of the R7RS, there is the line

(define (〈identifier〉 〈def formals〉) 〈body〉

in 7.1.6.
