edgar-rft: Well, I can tell you for sure that if you're a time traveller or if time moves backwards for you, then you shouldn't use reader macros where you want plists to align properly.

I have a very silly function (defun f (y) (let ((x (/ y))) 2)). Evidently the variable X is never used, but shouldn't it not be removed because it could signal a condition if I call (y 0)?

On SBCL it does optimizing for (safety 3), but not on default declaimations.

no-defun-allowed: I think signalling conditions for wrong aguments should be done with CHECK-TYPE or ASSERT, I wouldn't expect that the compiler cares about silly code.

True, but should a compiler be able to optimise out useless code that may signal a condition like that?

Hi, does anybody know why alambda macro is not included in the "anaphora" package on quicklisp? Is there in any other package on quicklisp that includes it?
