another question about defmacro lambda lists

    Does it make sense for nested lambda lists in a defmacro to contain things
    like &environment?  CLtL does not say whether the non-top-level lambda lists
    should be ordinary function lambda lists or whether they can use the extended
    syntax.

They certainly need to allow destructuring; it wouldn't make sense to have only
a single level of destructuring.  I don't think &whole and &environment make
sense any place other than at the top level, though.
