ALPHALESSP & Strings

    I do (ALPHALESSP "A" 'FOO) or (ALPHALESSP 'FOO "A") ... both return NIL.
    I believe this is due to the fact that I load the STRING library, but
    I'm not sure.  Why does this happen?
There is a bug in the ALPHALESSP function, when given two args of 
dissimilar type (one is a string, the other a symbol).  I can't patch
this problem in the current lisp, since the patch area is essentially
all used up, but I did assemble a new lisp (version 2122) and things
are fixed in it.
