I'm writing CL-STM, and I was wondering if we could change `condition-wait' to take the lock as an optional argument? At the moment, I'm acquiring a dummy lock, and then using `condition-wait' on it. What do you think?
This sounds like a reasonable request. Let me get your usage correct: you want to wait on a condition variable, but the actions you carry out don't have any shared state, and therefore don't require a lock to be used?
I'll mull it over a bit longer to see if I can think of any issues (although none come to mind immediately), and I'll release 0.0.2, since there have also been some other changes (especially regarding support for ABCL).
