30 ;; Note: It would be nice to warn here when a type is being
31 ;; incompatibly redefined, but it's hard to tell, since type
32 ;; expanders are often function objects which can't easily be
33 ;; compared for equivalence. And just warning on redefinition
34 ;; isn't good, since DEFTYPE necessarily does its thing once at
35 ;; compile time and again at load time, so that it's very common
36 ;; and normal for types to be defined twice. So since there
37 ;; doesn't seem to be anything simple and obvious to do, and
38 ;; since mistakenly redefining a type isn't a common error
39 ;; anyway, we just don't worry about trying to warn about it.
