Yes, you are right, but unfortunately, both functions are used by some
packages. So we have first to change the implementation of the packages,
or support two functions status and sstatus which have the same
functionality, but do not use the Lisp *features*.
By the way: It might be good to have a standard way to register a
package in Maxima and to have a look what external packages are loaded.
This might be interesting for debugging and bug reporting too.
