USERATOMS-HOOKS



Consider the following file as compiled on MC with XC:


(eval-when (compile)
    (defun :-hook (x)
	(let ((temp))
	   (cond ((not (atom x)) nil)
		 ((eq (car (setq temp (explode x))) ':)
		  (ncons `(quote ,(implode (append '(o b $)
						   (cdr temp))))))
		(t nil))))
    (push ':-hook useratoms-hooks))

(defun foo (x) 1)

(defun  foo1 (x) :z)

(setq ob$z 'win)

(defun :foo (x) 2)

It seems to me that the FASL file should achieve the same effect, in
this case, as

(defun foo (x) 1) ; no problem here, of course
(defun foo1 (x) ob$z)
(defun ob$foo (x) 2)

In fact what happens is that I get "OB$Z unbound variable" on
loading the FASL file.  (If I were to put an additional QUOTE
in the NCONS or if I were to set OB$Z to something, I would get
file not in fasload format at load time.)

If I omit the FOO1 defun, I get "OB$FOO unbound variable" on
loading.  In that case, if I set OB$FOO to, say, WRONG, the effect
is as if I had said (defun wrong (x) 2) instead of the
:foo defun.

Is all this really the way it's supposed to work?
