Well it's documented to take it as the first arg in Maclisp, or it was when the
Lisp machine cursorpos was written. Evidently it was changed. The only
Lisp machine program I know of that uses CURSORPOS is Macsyma; so how come
Macsyma works?
Streams? But that's Space Age Technology. Macsyma calls CURSORPOS without
a stream argument.
