[armedbear-devel] special operators without a macro definition

Here is a "bug-report"/enhancement suggestion:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following special operators don't have a corresponding macro definition.

THREADS:SYNCHRONIZED-ON
EXTENSIONS:TRULY-THE
JVM:WITH-INLINE-CODE

While the standard doesn't specify anything for special operators not in
the CL package, it would still be nice if they followed the same rule as
for CL macros implemented as special operators:

3.1.2.1.2.2 Macro Forms
An implementation is free to implement any macro operator as a special operator,
but only if an equivalent definition of the macro is also provided.

since this would ensure that portable code walkers can be written.
