Since JONL and I are disagreeing on this, we would like a survey of people's
opinions on hunks. Particularly, do you feel that JONL's change to XLisp
which makes (GET hunk ...) return NIL always is a ``bug fix'' or a change
in the language spec? Do you use code that treats hunks as lists (eg, does
such code use GET/PUTPROP, ASSQ/ASSOC, CAR/CDR, etc). Do you feel that
something has ``changed'' or ``been fixed''? Do you feel that such a
``change'' or ``fix'' is consistent with the present-day implementation of
Maclisp (independent of what it may be that should have been done ages ago
when hunks were originally implemented). Just reply to BUG-LISP.
Thanks.
