re: ....
If the designated package is used by other packages, a correctable
error is signalled. ...
"continuable error"
Yes, "continuable". If there is to be another version, it can be changed.
re: After this operation completes, the contents of the symbol-package
slot of any symbol homed in the deleted package is unspecified; ...
symbol S homed in pkg P == (eq P (symbol-package S)) ?
A symbol's "home" package is defined to be the contents of its
symbol-package cell. See CLtL p.175 (about middle of page).
