-  The type system doesn't understand the KEYWORD type very well:
-	(SUBTYPEP 'KEYWORD 'SYMBOL) => NIL, NIL
-  It might be possible to fix this by changing the definition of
-  KEYWORD to (AND SYMBOL (SATISFIES KEYWORDP)), but the type system
-  would need to be a bit smarter about AND types, too:
-	(SUBTYPEP '(AND SYMBOL KEYWORD) 'SYMBOL) => NIL, NIL
-  (The type system does know something about AND types already,
-	(SUBTYPEP '(AND INTEGER FLOAT) 'NUMBER) => T, T
-	(SUBTYPEP '(AND INTEGER FIXNUM) 'NUMBER) =>T, T
-  so likely this is a small patch.)

+  Note: I looked into fixing this in 0.6.11.15, but gave up. The
+  problem seems to be that there are two relevant type methods for
+  the subtypep operation, HAIRY :COMPLEX-SUBTYPEP-ARG2 and
+  INTERSECTION :COMPLEX-SUBTYPEP-ARG1, and only the first is
+  called. This could be fixed, but type dispatch is messy and
+  confusing enough already, I don't want to complicate it further.
+  Perhaps someday we can make CLOS cross-compiled (instead of compiled
+  after bootstrapping) so that we don't need to have the type system
+  available before CLOS, and then we can rewrite the type methods to
+  CLOS methods, and then expressing the solutions to stuff like this
+  should become much more straightforward. -- WHN 2001-03-14
