We've been talking about that for a while, but it's not possible to
port Emacs's implementation directly, not to mention the usual set of
"technical differences" (Aidan doesn't like "-*- lexbind: t -*-" which
matters because he's the only competent person who's shown interest in
writing code for this, the others being Mike -- as a Schemer you'd
think he'd be on it like a cat on catnip, but no interest shown as yet
-- and Ben -- not in evidence on XEmacs channels for many moons).

I'll see if this gives Aidan a reason to be happier about file-level
declarations.
