Nobody's answered my other question, it seems: is this COMPARE-FN actually used anywhere? I have the impression that it was added while trying to fix the fact that `pushnew' caused CL to be loaded at runtime. Since then we've found another fix (by adding memql), which should make the COMPARE-FN arg of add-to-list unnecessary, so we should just remove it. Stefan
