Indeed, just as most people probably think of INPUT-STREAM-P as
partitioning types (rather than accessing a slot), I think the
same of PATHNAME-WILD-P.
I don't have strong moral opposition to positioning it as
a conceptual slot, but then I'd want to call it PATHNAME-WILD
rather than PATHNAME-WILD-P. (I'd also wonder why there was
no :WILD or :WILD-P argument to MAKE-PATHNAME, and I might make
some really awful proposal to fix that... :-)
So I'm gonna leave it alone (unless there's a lot of other
opposition).
