With acknowledgement to Lewis Carroll's well-known distinctions--
Since named let is already called named let, and we have already
agreed to optionally keep the current syntax, which calls the name of
named let a named form of let, why don't we just name it named-let, to
minimize the confusion?

Let's get this straight:
The name of it is called "`named let'".
The name of it actually is "named-let".
But it is called "named let".
And it actually *is* "(defmacro named-let (name bindings . body) ...)"?
