    Hi,
    
    Are a setf on a simple variable, and a setf on a property list (i.e.,  
    a (setf getf)), thread-safe (atomic) operations in Allegro Common Lisp?

Pascal,

I've written a rather lengthy response to comp.lang.lisp, from whence
this question obviously comes and where I'm sure the conversation will
continue.
