I agree with Piazza's sentiment that it is not reasonable to expect
macros to comprehend the semantics of declarations.  This appears to be
another reason why SYMBOL-MACROLET ought to be a special form; then it
could accept declarations, and WITH-SLOTS could just pass them through.
(But I'm not necessarily endorsing the notion that type declarations
need to be supported here.)
