Regarding slime-compile-defun, maybe. However, it's not
straightforward because we call COMPILE-FILE and LOAD and it's those
two functions take care of binding these special variables.

For the eval functions, maybe not. They're more akin to calling EVAL
on the expression (or typing it out at the REPL). (Try for instance
slime-eval-last-expression with this expression: (eval-when
(:load-toplevel) (print 'hello)).)
