This uses lists (that happen to look like the source code of functions)
rather than actual functions.  The compiler won't see them, thus won't
compile them and won't give you warnings about dubious elements.

To use actual functions you need to do something like:

   `((ar . ,(lambda ()
              (alkotr-ar)
              (alkotr-af)))

     (go . ,(lambda ()
              (alkotr-go)
              (alkotr-gc))))
