FWIW, I agree with the use of unquoted "cdr" in the present case.
Especially since the notion of proper list is one that can't be
understood before you understand cons/car/cdr, and that there's AFAIK no
possible confusion with a normal English word (e.g. I'd be less
confident with the use of "car").
