Would you please stop arguing for rewriting Emacs in Common Lisp?  It
is a non-starter.

It would be an enormouse job -- including rewriting the Emacs Lisp
Referance Manual.  We can't be sure how much the benefit would be,
because Common Lisp has some drawbacks too.  But we know the cost is
prohibitive.
