(desetq (a b c) a)
fails. b gets bound to (cdar a) .... There is an
optimization that tries to save something between
(desetq (a b c) (f a)) and (desetq (a b c) a)..
In the first case a gensym gets bounnd to (f a).. If this happended
in the second case thigns would win.
The DESETQ generator is quite different than the LET one, and apparently
it is losing on that "optimization". I've just fixed this, with new
LET FASL on LISP;, version 45. If any problems, just copy LET OFASL
(version 40) back.
