     I'm running MACL 1.3.2 on my Macintosh II which has a 68881 floating point
   coprocessor, but :mc68881 isn't one of the keywords on the *FEATURES* list.
   Does this mean that MACL is not using the coprocessor for floating point
   operations?  If not, how do I tell MACL to make use of it?
No, it doesn't.  The keyword is no longer placed on *features*.  The
coprocessor is still used.  Sorry if the documentation wasn't
updated.
