[trivial-timeout-devel] Re: LispWorks support for trivial-timeout

[Gary King]

Hi John,

Thanks very much for this contribution to trivial-timeout. You're  
absolutely right that doit needs to be protected with a gensym. Good  
catch for my miss!

As for the progn and the values... go figure. I originally wrote this  
code a _long_ time ago and I was probably being, I don't know,  
overprotective. They certainly look redundant now.

I've rearranged the code in a way that I think makes multiple platform  
support easier to implement and understand; I'll be posting version  
0.1.3 later today.
