That's required because of the defmacro problem, apologies, I thought
I'd pushed that to my repository, but it's still in my working copy.

In the module-export sense. I'm manually populating packages for the
time being in CommonLisp. Actually I'm struggling to find what I read
that lead me to think this was an ANSI violation, might have confused
the locking of package common lisp with extraneous module-exports,
which are distinct.

That was the old behaviour with the loadClass method. That is,
loadClass("gnu.commonlisp.lisp.primtiives");
loadClass("gnu.commonlisp.lisp.defmacro"); in CommonLisp.

I've updated my repository. I have uncommented the loadClass lines
CommonLisp, so that we don't have to explicitly require the library
classes. So you can access all defined symbols now, which I don't
think is right.
