I only want to raise the question whether IF-LET should be renamed
BIF. (Or perhaps BIF could be added as an alias.) My rationale is that
IF-LET throws indentation a bit too far to the right.

  (if-let (it (foo))
          (do it)
          (dont-do it))

vs.

  (bif (it (foo))
       (do it)
       (dont-do it))

I suspect this name is controversial, though.
