It is a trivial matter.

The biggest issue I had was that when PLT switched, I had to go
and edit a bunch of legacy code.  Unfortunately, calls to READ in
PLT Scheme used the current dynamic value of the case-sensitivity switch,
rather than the lexical value apparent at the call site, so I had to go
find and edit all the calls to READ as well.

Macro expansion might be interesting because it could introduce
case-sensitive code into the middle of case-insensitive code.
