[parenscript-devel] Catch forms shouldn't require a variable

[Daniel Gackle]

PS throws an error here:

  (ps (try (a) (:catch nil (b))))

I think it should just gensym an identifier for the catch form. Sometimes
you just want to know whether an error occurred, not what it was.

This came up because I implemented something like try/catch in CL, for the
code that we compile to both CL and PS. If I stuff a variable in the catch
form, the CL compiler warns about an unused variable. So I wrote a wrapper
to do the above-mentioned gensym thing.
