Maybe an obscure dialect (can't find it in Common Lisp, MacLisp or Interlisp).

The symbol `wholenump` is most commonly seen by users in errors as it's 
generated by CHECK_FIXNAT. It would be good to change that to the less obscure 
`natnump`, and it seems implausible that such a change would break any code. 
Any objections?
