[armedbear-devel] [BUG] make-thread and :NAME nil

[Tobias C. Rittweiler]

Not providing a :NAME parameter to MAKE-THREAD will currently fail:

  CL-USER(1): (threads:make-thread (constantly t)) 
  Debugger invoked on condition of type TYPE-ERROR:
    The value NIL is not of type STRING.

Funnily enough, explicitly providing NIL kind of works:

 CL-USER(2): (threads:make-thread (constantly t) :name nil)
 #<THREAD "NIL" {1EEB372}>

But, as you can see, the passed NIL is taken as a string designator, but
probably shouldn't.

  -T.
