Hi,

I can see sometimes these kind of procedures ##car, ##cdr, ##null? etc... in
code that has been optimized for Gambit. What is exactly the difference
between those and the standard ones? And if these ones are faster, why are
they defined as separate functions instead of just substituting the standard
ones when in (unsafe) compilation? Then, how are they really used?

Thanks a lot,

Álvaro
