New issue: DEFPACKAGE

In response to David A. Moon <Moon at STONY-BROOK.SCRC.Symbolics.COM>

This looks good, as far as it goes, and the fact that it has actually
been tested in practice is a big plus -- it tends to give one confidence
that nothign critical has been overlooked.

I'm a bit uneasy about the syntax that you propose for the options.  It
would be more compatible with the rest of Common Lisp to use alternating
keywords and arguments.  Some users may find the odd syntax of your
DEFPACKAGE to be confusing.  Is there some real advantage to the syntax
you propose, or is this just a bit of Zetalisp culture peeking through?
