Since CLtL doesn't define any programming environment hooks beyond
TRACE and a few others, these will be fairly implementation specific.
Of course, if a portable interface can be defined which allows multiple
implementations to benefit, then such hooks are a win for everybody,
but doing them for one specific implementation (such as the Lisp Machine)
unfairly excludes users of other implementations.
