I share your preference for system macros, but wonder if it is worth the
hassle to try to change (Again!). Probably we would have instituted a
whole new class of initial objects (system macros) had we known the protest
that arose over PUSH and POP as FSUBRs. Does not the problem still arise
however if one wants to macro-define something that just happens to have the
same name as some system FSUBR, e.g. STATUS or SIGNP?
