The code is probably
(mapcar '(lambda....
and changed to
(mapcar #'(lambda ...
(Some lisps may be smart enough to do it either way.
In the past, probably all lisps did it either way).
At some point I think we may want to change package designations
from upper case strings to keywords in the standard
case for the system. For example,
(in-package :macsyma)
I don't know if this will work with GCL or the
other lisps.
Is there a clear specification of the algorithms that
should be used? Are there examples/ benchmarks for
them? I assume they used to work... is that true?
