Hello!
Thanks for the repair.

I have one suggestion: Do you use any kind of "sanity test" to see if the changes in newLISP didn't affect the functions negatively? Something like (test-GMP) in gmp.lsp.
We could write some script testing the correctness of all functions. (Lots of work, though...)

There are files called 'qa_dot' (for decimal point) and a 'qa_comma' (for locales with decimal comma) in the newLISP source distribution. These files are used as a 'sanity' test and continuosly grow with test-regressions if new bugs are found.

For each official release I also do a test for memory leaks.
