EVAL-WHEN doesn't appear to be a PROGN.  It seems to return T or NIL
depending on wether it did, or didn't, eval.  Since top-level
DEFmumbleing things sometimes want to act like defun and return the
name of the thing defined it would be nice if EVAL-WHEN returned the
value of the last thing evaled (or NIL?).  This would seem to be more
flavorfull anyway.  (BTW the definition of DEFVAR clearly indicates
that whoever wrote it thought that is what EVAL-WHEN did.)
