Bug report: COMPILE-FILE not doing minimal compilation in DEFCONSTANT/DEFPARAMETER/DEFVAR

COMPILE-FILE is supposed to expand all macros in such a way that they
will not be expanded again when the compiled file is loaded.  (3.2.2.2)

The file below has 4 output lines that start with "*** Expanding macro".
None of those lines should be printed when the compiled file is loaded.

------- begin test-min-compilation.lisp -------

(macrolet ((m1 ()
             (format t "~&*** Expanding macro 1.~%")
             '(format t "~&Output of macro 1.~%")))
  (m1))

(defconstant +dc+
  (macrolet ((m2 ()
               (format t "~&*** Expanding macro 2 inside DEFCONSTANT.~%")
               '(format t "~&Output of macro 2.~%")))
    (m2)))

(defparameter *dp*
  (macrolet ((m3 ()
               (format t "~&*** Expanding macro 3 inside DEFPARAMETER.~%")
               '(format t "~&Output of macro 3.~%")))
    (m3)))

(defvar *dv*
  (macrolet ((m4 ()
               (format t "~&*** Expanding macro 4 inside DEFVAR.~%")
               '(format t "~&Output of macro 4.~%")))
    (m4)))

------- end test-min-compilation.lisp -------

CCL, CLISP, ECL and SBCL print none of the 4, ABCL prints 3 of the 4.

This one might be relatively easy, because ABCL is already handling
#1 correctly, and just needs to handle #2/3/4 in the same way as #1.

The rest of this message is the transcript.
