I would suggest that it is better to define a new keyword for
DEFMACRO which would let it get at the whole form
rather than make (DEFMACRO FOO X ...) do so. This is not just for
the sake of compatibility with old code, but for keeping DEFMACRO's
definition free of special cases. It could be
(DEFMACRO FOO (&WHOLE-FORM X) ...)
