Greetings! I have a local modification which I am considering including in 2.6.12, which standardizes the common-lisp and common-lisp-user packages per the spec, i.e. the former contains only the standard 978 symbols, all exported.
This impacts current maxima (at least) in the following symbols: clines, defentry, object, system, and quit, (all of which I suppose should move to :cl-user) and in the reverse fashion, *load-pathname*, which moves from :si into :cl. Ideally I'd like gcl releases to 'just work' on a range of maxima releases in the past up to the present. I'm wondering what the best way to build in some backward compatibility into gcl, and also into maxima should it modify the existing code but wish to support earlier versions of gcl. Ideas appreciated.
