Right.  That suggests that when the new CCL comes out, we could simply
muffle the style warnings in encode-json-nr, and rip out my laborious
typecase minimizing #+ and #-'s...

Indeed, probably we could take what I've got now and wrap parts of it in

#+(and CCL (not CCL-1.7))

then add some

#+CCL-1.7

that would take care of muffling the style-warnings from compiling
encode-json-nr
