As mentioned in the SRFI FAQ, the recommended pronunciation for SRFI is "surfie". Therefore, it should be "a SRFI", not "an SRFI". In the SRFI FAQ, there are currently 4 instances of "a SRFI" and 3 instances of "an SRFI", which is not consistent. This pull request standardises on "a SRFI" across the board.

@arthurgleckler Which spelling should it be?

Sorry that this got lost for so long. In the meantime, I had fixed all public instances of this inconsistency except in the SRFI documents themselves. In other words, the home page, the subscriptions page, etc. all use "a SRFI." I'm not going to bother going through old SRFIs to fix this, though.

Thanks, Chris, for the contribution, and sorry for losing track of this. I got confused and thought that it applied to SRFI 123 alone. Once Taylan had fixed it there, I ignored the pull request.

Thanks, Lassi, for reminding me of this.
