lispworks patch

If that's what it takes to make it work without warnings, that sounds
good to me.

Great. And I suppose you also tested that you didn't break LispWorks 7.0.0 ?

I don't think anyone else but you is using those versions of
LispWorks. Certainly neither Robert nor I. We will gladly accept your
patches, as long as you make sure you don't break anything by passing
all tests on all recent implementations that could be affected by your
changes (including notably LispWorks 7, but also, say, SBCL, for good
measure).
