I'm not convinced about the choice for the behaviour of `cons` in NewLisp.

  Or the forced pass by value, or the lack of closures, or the namespaces kluge... Or the choice of dynamic scoping - although judging from your username I suspect you might not mind that one as much ;)

      I don't understand the motivation for this comment kludge; why can't there be a proper top-level form for this: (lexical-binding t) ;; or whatever Lisps should not be ferreting out code generation semantics from comments; that idea should have died with Turbo Pascal.
