After thinking about this for quite a while, I've come to believe that
Kent's interpretation of the EVAL situation is probably correct
because it makes sense in compiled-only implementations. Also, I did
a little investigation into current practice and found that both Lucid
and KCL treat the EVAL situation this way, so there is some precedent
for it.
