Howdy,
        To clarify my vague reference to some other low level
dynamic control operator, I've found the relevant references:
        "A Library of High Level Control Operators"
         C. Queinnec, Lisp Pointers VI,4
        "Control Delimiters and Their Hierarchies"
         D. Sitaram, M. Felleisen, Lisp And Symbolic Computation,,
          3,1990
The idea is to provide some minimal built in machinery to implement
stuff like CATCH, THROW, HANDLER-CASE, ERROR... 

Oh yeah, forgot:

o Inline asm via (asm ...) special form.
