Re: EVAL-WHEN symbols

	 While on the topic of symbols and such, I have a question
	 about EVAL-WHEN.  Does it only allow LISP:EVAL, LISP:COMPILE
	 and LISP:LOAD, or does it only check the print-name?  
	
	 I think it should check print-names, so you can
	 shadow these symbols.  Otherwise, you would be forced
	 to add the package prefix in all the EVAL-WHEN forms.
	
Now that you mention it:  EVAL, COMPILE, and LOAD should have been 
keywords.
