This procedure is unique to R6RS.
This procedure can raise exceptions with the following condition types:
- &assertion (R6RS)
- The wrong number of arguments was passed or an argument was outside its
domain. In particular, hashtable should be a mutable hashtable and
key should be in the domain of the hashtable's hash and equal
functions.
This procedure first appeared in R6RS. An equivalent procedure can be found in
SRFI-69 under the name hash-table-delete!.
