No, I don't have them, I think ... no, not
a single one of either!
I don't understand the purpose of them either,

>From the docstring of `eval-when-compile':
Like ‘progn’, but evaluates the body at compile
time if you’re compiling. Thus, the result of
the body appears to the compiler as
a quoted constant.
