Actually, in other lisps that hosted Axiom, such as VMLisp, it was perfectly possible for the so-called function position of an expression to contain virtually any expression. VMLisp will do a complete recursive evaluation of the car of an expression. Common lisp introduced restrictions on what could appear in the function position. Since common lisp is our new, favorite lisp we can remove the test. Portions of the code still contain these historical lisp-isms.
