Thanks. This helps a lot. Follow-up question: :if-feature really doesn't make sense at the system level, does it? The grammar allows that, but it seems silly there. Am I wrong about this?

I will add an example of suggested use of :IF-FEATURE to the manual.

Actually, I hadn't thought of that, but the :if-feature might make sense at the system level indeed. For instance, sb-grovel and other sbcl extensions could be :if-feature :sbcl, whereas my single-threaded-ccl could be :if-feature :ccl. Actually, I just did that to the latter!
