Type declaration in Common Lisp are only for
speed, they don't catch type errors.
If you declare a variable to be of a certain type,
and the variable gets assigned a value of a different
type, the implementation is free to crash (and it
usually does in implementations compiling to native
code).
So, CL is not an answer to Kostis' wish.
