I know it looks a little goofy. Here's the rationale: (1) I hope gcl
will get its own destructuring-bind before too long. (2) I don't want to
muck with the 5.6 system any more than absolutely necessary. (3) I want
the code to build under both old and new build systems.
If the local destructuring-bind code lasts past 5.9.0 (i.e., gcl isn't
fixed soon), I propose we move it to a separate file.
