Re: SV: SV: 2D or not 2E

It's academic since I have already changed the name (what you are 
recommending) to avoid the issue, but:

;; Corman Lisp 2.01  Copyright © 2003 Roger Corman. All rights reserved.
;; Licensed to Kenneth Tilton.
2d
;;; An error occurred in function #< COMPILED-FUNCTION: #x14210E8 >:
;;; Error: The variable 2D is unbound
;;; Entering Corman Lisp debug loop.
;;; Use :C followed by an option to exit. Type :HELP for help.
;;; Restart options:
;;; 1   Abort to top level.
(symbolp '2d)
T

Besides, the 2d (or 5d) worked as a struct name and the issue appeared 
when the compiler got to 2d-h. Is that a potential number?

And at any rate the destructive modification of 2d-h into 2e-h is pretty 
funny, probably worth patching up if it is not too much trouble. And 
fixing it (which JP already has done) seems easier than justifying it.

(symbolp '2d-h)
T
2d-h
;;; An error occurred in function #< COMPILED-FUNCTION: #x1490FA0 >:
;;; Error: The variable 2E-H is unbound
;;; Entering Corman Lisp debug loop.
;;; Use :C followed by an option to exit. Type :HELP for help.
;;; Restart options:
;;; 1   Abort to top level.

It's a simple bug. CormanLisp is trying to handle it as I intended, and 
as ACL and LW successfully do. CormanLisp also handles it in several 
ways (as noted above) successfully.

May as well just fix it.
