Out of curiosity, I'm still following your Notes from the Metalevel and 
using an old version of CM (I think I
have installed it from CVS 5-6 months ago).

If I install the latest version of the CM (from CVS) do I have to modify 
the codes presented in the book?
If so, major changes?

(e.g. the example you have provided below: (use-system :rts) )
