What does LOAD use for read table & package?

["George J. Carrette" <GJC@MC.LCS.MIT.EDU>]

Looking back through the *anals* (sic) of BUG-LISPM at MIT you will find
my objections to the the "-*-" crock too. But you dont get the point of
my suggestion:
 "To be actually suggesting that users can use -*- without fear,
  and that it IS PORTABLE. This is because there are many
  machines that support it now in a consistent way, and since
  other machines IGNORE it then users are free to implement it
  themselves."

Any of RWK's suggestions would be easy to implement and very servicable
to the community, in my experience.
