+ When the compiler inline expands functions, it may be that different
+ kinds of return values are generated from different code branches.
+ E.g. an inline expansion of POSITION generates integer results
+ from one branch, and NIL results from another. When that inline
+ expansion is used in a context where only one of those results
+ is acceptable, e.g.
+ (defun foo (x)
+ (aref *a1* (position x *a2*)))
+ and the compiler can't prove that the unacceptable branch is
+ never taken, then bogus type mismatch warnings can be generated.
+ If you need to suppress the type mismatch warnings, you can
+ suppress the inline expansion,
+ (defun foo (x)
+ #+sbcl (declare (notinline position)) ; to suppress bug 117 bogowarnings
+ (aref *a1* (position x *a2*)))
+ or, sometimes, suppress them by declaring the result to be of an
+ appropriate type,
+ (defun foo (x)
+ (aref *a1* (the integer (position x *a2*))))
+
+ This is not a new compiler problem in 0.7.0, but the new compiler
+ transforms for FIND, POSITION, FIND-IF, and POSITION-IF make it
+ more conspicuous. If you don't need performance from these functions,
+ and the bogus warnings are a nuisance for you, you can return to
+ your pre-0.7.0 state of grace with
+ #+sbcl (declaim (notinline find position find-if position-if)) ; bug 117..

+
+ Also, "the same problem exists for LONG-FLOAT-EPSILON,
+ DOUBLE-FLOAT-NEGATIVE-EPSILON, LONG-FLOAT-NEGATIVE-EPSILON (though
+ for the -negative- the + is replaced by a - in the test)."
+

+ a bug in the byte compiler and/or interpreter: Compile
+ (IN-PACKAGE :CL-USER)
+ (DECLAIM (OPTIMIZE (SPEED 0) (SAFETY 1) (DEBUG 1)))
+ (DEFUN BAR (&REST DIMS)
+ (IF (EVERY #'INTEGERP DIMS)
+ 1
+ 2))
+ then execute (BAR '(1 2 3 4)). In sbcl-0.pre7.14.flaky4.8
+ this gives a TYPE-ERROR,
+ The value #:UNINITIALIZED-EVAL-STACK-ELEMENT is not
+ of type (MOD 536870911).
+ The same error will probably occur in earlier versions as well,
+ although the name of the uninitialized-element placeholder will
+ be shorter.
+
+ The same thing happens if the compiler macro expansion of
+ EVERY into MAP is hand-expanded:
+ (defun bar2 (dims)
+ (if (block blockname
+ (map nil
+ (lambda (dim)
+ (let ((pred-value (funcall #'integerp dim)))
+ (unless pred-value
+ (return-from blockname
+ nil))))
+ dims)
+ t)
+ 1
+ 2))
+ CMU CL doesn't have this compiler macro expansion, so it was
+ immune to the original bug in BAR, but once we hand-expand it
+ into BAR2, CMU CL 18c has the same bug. (Run (BAR '(NIL NIL)).)
+
+ The native compiler handles it fine, both in SBCL and in CMU CL.
+
+120a:
+ The compiler incorrectly figures the return type of
+ (DEFUN FOO (FRAME UP-FRAME)
+ (IF (OR (NOT FRAME)
+ T)
+ FRAME
+ "BAR"))
+ as NIL.
+
+ This problem exists in CMU CL 18c too. When I reported it on
+ cmucl-imp@cons.org, Raymond Toy replied 23 Aug 2001 with
+ a partial explanation, but no fix has been found yet.
+
+120b:
+ Even in sbcl-0.pre7.x, which is supposed to be free of the old
+ non-ANSI behavior of treating the function return type inferred
+ from the current function definition as a declaration of the
+ return type from any function of that name, the return type of NIL
+ is attached to FOO in 120a above, and used to optimize code which
+ calls FOO.
