Because we're small, it's whatever you feel like fixing, because it affects
you, you think you know how to fix it, or you want to learn more about that
particular area. We're all volunteers; we do what we want.

I suppose that it's genuinely useful in some way, hopefully to more than
just you, but that's not really necessary, I suppose.   The best thing is
to file an issue and we can discuss it there.

I suppose it should end up simplifying things in some way.  One thing that
Carl and I have talked about is simplifying/removing things from
src/code/unix.lisp to make the interface to the C function simpler from a
Lisp interface viewpoint.  There are some others that have been filed as
issues.  These are relatively small.
