I do: the point about track-mouse is correct: it used to be a special
form (implemented in C), but nowadays is a macro.  So I removed it
from the list of special forms.

I didn't do anything about 'lambda', because its user-facing behavior
is that of a special form, and the fact that it is a thin wrapper
around 'function' is an implementation detail that doesn't necessarily
matter in this context.

With that, I'm closing this bug report.

Thanks.
