Core sets are so-called because they are part of the core Sol language
specification, and represent the primitive Sol types, e.g. the set of
integers, strings, lists, etc.. Every R4 Scheme type has a
corresponding Sol core set. In addition, there are a number of core
sets relating to aspects of the Sol language not shared with Scheme
(the set of sets, for instance). Core sets are special in that all
other sets in some way derive from core sets, either by explicitly
including members or through operations on other sets.
