PROBLEM:
As long as I'm working on the batch-related command-line options,
it would be reasonable to add one more option to "do what I'd want",
- testing standard input for TTY-ness and running in no-programmer
+ testing standard input for non-TTY-ness and running in no-programmer
mode if so.
FIX:
?? Do it.
some functions, and I never realized that there's a wrapper-based
facility too until I was wading through the source code for SBCL.
Yes, I know I should have RTFM, but there is a lot of M..

FIX:
?? possibility 1: Add error-handling code in ntrace.lisp to
catch failure to set breakpoints and retry using
it always works.

PROBLEM:
- When cross-compiling host-byte-comp.lisp, I get bogus
- warnings
- caught STYLE-WARNING:
- undefined function: %%DEFCONSTANT
- caught STYLE-WARNING:
- This function is undefined:
- %%DEFCONSTANT
-MUSING:
- The best way to clean this up would be as a side-effect of
- a larger cleanup, making all the %%DEFFOO stuff use EVAL-WHEN
- instead of IR1 magic.
- There's probably some way to do it with a quick local hack too.

- My system of parallel build directories doesn't seem to add value.

FIX:
?? Replace it with a system where fasl output files live in the
same directories as the sources and have names a la
thing in itself, but might be a fair amount of work.)

-PROBLEM:
- My ad hoc system of revision control is looking pretty clunky,
- and I've pretty much stopped doing stuff to confuse CVS (like moving
- directories around).
-FIX:
- ?? Check into CVS.
- ?? Make sure that the tags in FILE-COMMENTs expand correctly.
- ?? See about automatically propagating version information
- from CVS into the runtime.c banner message and the
- LISP-IMPLEMENTATION-VERSION string.

-
bugs listed on the man page
more regression tests
-various bugs fixed in CMUCL since this code was forked off of it
-ca. 19980801, since most of these haven't been fixed yet in SBCL
-
byte compilation of appropriate parts of the system, so that the
system core isn't so big
-uninterning needed-only-at-init-time stuff after init is complete,
-so that the system core isn't so big
-
Search for unused external symbols (ones which are not bound, fbound,
types, or whatever, and also have no other uses as e.g. flags) and
delete them. This should make the system core a little smaller, but
