I didn't have much time to look at CL-WHO in the last months, but as
an update let me say that with the current behaviour this isn't really
a bug (as in variable capture) but rather a result of how CL-WHO is
implemented.  I'm currently working on changing this.  In the
meantime, don't use STR (or ESC etc.) as a variable name... :)
