[alexandria-devel] multiple values in switch clauses

[Marco Baringer]

hi,

  i'd like switch to, just like case and typecase do, allow multiple
  values in the 'value' position of the condition:

  (switch (foo)
    ((bar baz) ...))

  So the attached patch checks for the key form being a cons and, if so,
  expands into a (member value :test test) instead of (test value)
  form. Of course, this means that your key values can no longer be
  forms, so this may break existing code. I don't have any code which
  actually uses a function call in the value form of the clause (and a
  quick grep over my locally installed lisp libs shows nobody else does
  either), so i'm ok with the change, but i can understand if others
  don't agree.
