To clarify a little, I'm not concerned with the behavior or
misbehavior of the inspector/debugger.  It seems to me that there's a
problem with PCL where this slot is marked as bound but has something
in it that causes PRINT-OBJECT to blow up.  I thought that wasn't
supposed to happen.

Of course part of the problem is I'm not exactly sure what's happening
so the above may be an incorrect diagnosis.

In 1981, an OSHA epidemiological study of 2,500 workers, half of whom
had been exposed to PCBs for over 17 years, found that the number of
deaths from cancer was 10 percent lower than what would be expected
for a group with the same profile in the general population.
