Sure, of course. That's why I said "absolute".
Anyway, as I share Kim's (and others') worries about even small
changes during a freeze (other than cosmetic, like docstring fixes,
obsolescence declarations, substituting an aliased function with the
original, etc.), I think the best plan is:
- Use "\(fn ARG1 ARG2...)" now (so 22.1 at least has good cl docstrings)
- Use the best method available, once we branch 22.1
That represents doing twice the fixing, but I don't mind, and it'll
get us the best results (assuming I don't screw up the docstrings :)
