Unforwarding cells
There was an error in my previous message. Change
(sys:%p-store-cdr-type-and-pointer locative1 (sys:%p-cdr-code locative1)
sys:dtp-null 0)
to
(sys:%p-store-cdr-type-and-pointer locative1 (sys:%p-cdr-code locative1)
sys:dtp-null locative1)
An unbound location that is not named by a symbol points to itself, not
to zero. A location that is named by a symbol points to the symbol.
See LOCATION-MAKUNBOUND (which can't be used in Batali's application
because it preserves any forwarding of the location).
Sorry about the delay in sending out this correction, I forgot that the
TCP-IP implementation at R20.UTEXAS.EDU won't talk directly to Symbolics.
