Hi Yakov,
Yes, that does look inconsistent with the documentation. I use DEFPARAMETER if I need such a variable.
Perhaps that line of documentation dates from before Vladimir implemented lexical scoping.
By the way, Vladimir is traveling for a few months and most changes will probably have to wait until he is back.

Also,
$ cat foo.lisp (let ((s-a)) (+ s-a 42) (chain s-a (append-child foo)))

Which is against documentation "Top-level LET and LET* forms will create new global variables, or overwrite the values of already existing global variables with the same name."
