I know it's taking a long time, but I haven't got to that part of the
patches yet. That should come after the lisp package patches. In my
branch, I  predefine static symbol members in CommonLisp for special
case comparisons. Like if (sym == CommonLisp.DECLARE) etc, but that's
only clean once we have a notion of the CL package, into which these
symbols are interned.

(BTW, I wasn't very clear about the RunTestScript thing, if make check
hangs in the commonlisp testsuite, the problem isn't confined to my
computer)
