Universally useful Lisp code that lives in package com.google.base.
The intent is that the base package only contains code that's highly likely to
be useful in every Lisp application. Currently it contains:
a nicer version of DEFCONSTANT
a macro for generating simple PRINT-OBJECT methods
a MISSING-ARGUMENT function for use in DEFCLASS forms
functions for manipulating utf-8 strings stored as vectors of 8-bit octets
common compiler optimization settings
functions for extracting the prefix or suffix of a sequence
Lisp type definitions for common C integer types
