Section 1.6 Language Extensions of the standard says this:
A language extension is any documented implementation-defined behavior of a defined name in this standard that varies from the behavior described in this standard [...]
It is unclear to me if the term "behavior" could encompass additional keyword arguments passed to a function or macro.
I think it does, because section 3.5.1.4 Unrecognized Keyword Arguments says that an error must be signaled for unrecognized keywords in a safe call, so that will not happen for an extension keyword. -- Martin Simmons LispWorks Ltd http://www.lispworks.com/
