dear list,

does anyone have any objections against pushing this:

Set *list-end-test* to 'endp instead of 'atom, so (iter (for foo :in something-non-list)) fails instead of silently exists

it bit me several times and long ago i've changed it to 'endp on my local copy. it did not cause me any headaches with any projects i use, but i may be missing some use-cases.

if nobody speaks up for long enough, i'll push it eventually.

ENDP sounds like a good idea. I was under the impression that iterate/for/in already failed with improper lists, but if it doesn't yet, it really should.

Cheers,
