... What does LW and SBCL hate about wrapping toplevel forms in progn?

The LW debugger can't set breakpoints unless I remove the progn wrapper. A user of my code is complaining that "it doesn't work" in SBCL (:-) (I guess I'll get more detail later). Asking the question got me to think of an experiment. I typed (defstruct hello a b ) Into a file, then asked LW to macroexpand it. What is the result? (in-package "COMMON-LISP-USER") (dspec ...) i.e. two forms without a wrapper! And the answer in SBCL is a progn! With a an onerous-looking ...LOCK... as the first form. pt
