    Have you forgotten how DO is generalized?  with the old-style available,
    a non-atomic first arg is *not* generalized the way you just did for
    DOTIMES.

No I have not forgotten anything.  I am not defending old-style
DO as an example of elegant syntax.  But here it is and we are stuck
with it (I confess to even using it sometimes).  This is not a reason
to implement other NEW such crocks.
