    (trace alphalessp)
    (sort '(this is a test) 'alphalessp)
    (1 ENTER (ALPHALESSP (IS THIS))
    (1 EXIT ALPHALESSP T)

SORT is hand-coded and thought that it *knew* that the ALPHALESSP
function doesn't damage certain accumulators.   But phooey on that 
if one re-defines, or traces, ALPHALESSP;  so I've repaired that
hole in the accumulator defences, and it works now in SORT version 13.
