It's about time we introduced COPY and COPYLIST into Maclisp as autoloading
macros doing (SUBST NIL NIL x) and (APPEND x NIL), respectively. Any
objections? If not, we should ask LISP-FORUM about the exact naming. LispM
doesn't have a COPY function yet -- they already use COPYLIST and I think that
is a reasonable name. I think we should push for having COPY do the full copy,
but CWH says they may have chosen a different name, in which case we should
adopt that name.
