- Inconsistencies between derived and declared VALUES return types for
- DEFUN aren't checked very well. E.g. the logic which successfully
- catches problems like
- (declaim (ftype (function (fixnum) float) foo))
- (defun foo (x)
- (declare (type integer x))
- (values x)) ; wrong return type, detected, gives warning, good!
- fails to catch
- (declaim (ftype (function (t) (values t t)) bar))
- (defun bar (x)
- (values x)) ; wrong number of return values, no warning, bad!
- The cause of this is seems to be that (1) the internal function
- VALUES-TYPES-EQUAL-OR-INTERSECT used to make the check handles its
- arguments symmetrically, and (2) when the type checking code was
- written back when when SBCL's code was still CMU CL, the intent
- was that this case
- (declaim (ftype (function (t) t) bar))
- (defun bar (x)
- (values x x)) ; wrong number of return values; should give warning?
- not be warned for, because a two-valued return value is considered
- to be compatible with callers who expects a single value to be
- returned. That intent is probably not appropriate for modern ANSI
- Common Lisp, but fixing this might be complicated because of other
- divergences between auld-style and new-style handling of
- multiple-VALUES types. (Some issues related to this were discussed
- on cmucl-imp at some length sometime in 2000.)

257:
Complex array type does not have corresponding type specifier.
+ This is a problem because the compiler emits optimization notes when
+ you use a non-simple array, and without a type specifier for hairy
+ array types, there's no good way to tell it you're doing it
+ intentionally so that it should shut up and just compile the code.
+
+ Another problem is confusing error message "asserted type ARRAY
+ conflicts with derived type (VALUES SIMPLE-VECTOR &OPTIONAL)" during
+ compiling (LAMBDA (V) (VALUES (SVREF V 0) (VECTOR-POP V))).
+
+ The last problem is that when type assertions are converted to type
+ checks, types are represented with type specifiers, so we could lose
+ complex attribute. (Now this is probably not important, because
+ currently checks for complex arrays seem to be performed by
+ callees.)
+
+259:
+ (compile nil '(lambda () (aref (make-array 0) 0))) compiles without

+ which is canonicalized to NIL.
