Regarding your message about
(*RSET NIL)
(setq x '(1 2 3))
(SORTCAR (CDR X))
giving ;**MISSING-ARG** UNDEFINED FUNCTION IN UUO CALL:
I think it's a fine error message: a function got called,
and it lost because it was a "missing argument" -- therefore someone
forgot to pass a functional argument to somebody. Serves you
right for turning off error-checking. Had you left *RSET T,
you would have gotten a better message.
