re: What do you do if you encounter #+nasa:hyperdrive but you don't have the
nasa package defined?
If an alleged feature name "doesn't exist", that means that the feature
isn't present [and it can fail to "exist" in several different ways].
This is the behaviour Lucid implements, and I'm sure I saw some network
mail a long time ago agreeing to this meaning. But I don't see any
statement about this case in the X3J13 CLeanup Committee's issue
SHARPSIGN-PLUS-MINUS-PACKAGE. Kent? Larry?
