Does FORMAT handle multiple values

    Does format handle multiple values at all?  What I want to do is
    something like the following (only this throws away everything but
    the first value):

    (format t "~S~%" (progn ... (values ...)))

I would write this as

    (multiple-value-call #'format t "~S~%" (progn ... (values ...)))

thereby causing multiple values from each argument form to be
"spread out" as separate arguments to FORMAT.
