Comment(by sjamaan):

 I think it's best to make this behave the same as LET and other binding
 constructs.  Right now that gives a warning when it detects a variable
 being bound multiple times.  Unfortunately, I think we can't do it at this
 level because this complicates things a lot when considering DSSSL lambda
 lists.

 Also, the LET warning is kind of useless because it doesn't show the line
 number. So perhaps this should be moved elsewhere.  It could be put in
 compiler.scm/eval.scm, but that complicates those already very complex
 handlers even more.  I'm not sure about the best solution for this.

 Felix, if you're reading this, maybe you have an idea?
