[Gcl-devel] Difference in behavior between EVAL and COMPILE

[Paul F. Dietz]

I changed the setf expander for GETF to resemble
that in SBCL.  This is to fix setf-getf.order.2
in ansi-tests/getf.lsp.  However, the result
is odd -- it passes when rt::*compile-tests*
is true, but fails when that variable is bound
to nil.  This looks like it may be a bug in
gcl's EVAL function.

Camm, if you could look at this and tell me
what's happening, I'd appreciate it.  If I
use MACROEXPAND to expand the setf form, the
tests pass, even under EVAL.

The tests involved are setf-getf.order.[12].
