    My only question re: roman numerals is:  what does *common lisp* do for values
    above the specified range (or unspecified, so far as the spec is concerned).
    Do we just not print romans above certain values?  What is printed instead?
    Etc.?

Implementors are informally encouraged to print either the decimal
equivalent, or else the phrase
