I have two questions/things that are unclear to me: First, the docstring
of `eval' talks about LEXICAL as an "alist mapping" which seems not to
be exact if it is allowed to contain plain symbols. Should the
docstring be clarified as well?
Second: you wrote "or a symbol representing a dynamically bound
variable". Does this variable really have to be bound (to a value), or
do you mean "dynamically binding" (aka special)? And such a member VAR
in LEXICAL means that the VAR is special when FORM is evaluated - even
when the variable has not been declared special in the outer
context...or something else?
TIA,
Michael.
