Yes, that's the reason we bpassed gcl routines. We still use the
internal routines, however, to generate the data, but we don't try to
coalesce them all if the arguments types match.

What does 'proclaimed-closure detection actually do and how does that
affect sys-proclaim?

Perhaps things have changed, but sys-proclaim isn't supposed to be
generated on every build. Or perhaps my memory of how this all works
is wrong; I don't build with gcl nearly as often as I used to.
