In-Reply-To: <20240515174925.A0BEFC2BC82@vcs2.savannah.gnu.org> (Andrea Corallo's message of "Wed, 15 May 2024 13:49:25 -0400 (EDT)")

That makes no sense: (defvar compilation-safety) has no runtime effect,
it does not define the variable, it just tells the compiler that the
variable exists elsewhere and is dynamically scoped.  Furthermore, it
normally affects only the "current scope", so the effect of this
`defvar` should arguably end when we exit the `unless` (because of how
it's implemented it currently doesn't end when we exit the `unless`).
