I think part of the problem here is that you are smarter than most of
the rest of us (at least me).
I'm still groping after a clear statement of exactly what class of bugs
it is that we are proposing to fix. The

about what breaks if you try to work around a readtable conflict by
somehow forcing load order. I replied in the document.
You say that you had a system that was broken by my branch — did it

yet. However, I have read over the design notes in TODO, and pulled
them out into a separate file, which I am attaching here. I have
