(Scheme) set! vs set-car!/set-cdr!

Hello there Scheme magicians, I walked across the desert from lands far away to seek your wisdom.
So, I have a list value some-list set to () and I need to change it to, say, (0 1 2 3).  I can't use set! for obvious reasons (set! is like SETQ, a special form and not a first-class procedure) and I can't use set-car!/set-cdr! either because they want a mutable pair.  How do I assigned to a list variable, /prog/?

I hope you guys are prepared for set-c*r! to be removed.
