    initial v1  
    1 Transcribed from IRC: basically, {{{##sys#canonicalize-body}}} reorders
    2 internal definitions so that multi-valued assignments always follow
    3 normal ones. The result is always a bunch of let bindings to introduce
    4 the vars followed by a bunch of {{{##core#set!}}} nodes to assign them,
    5 but the normal and multi-valued var/val pairs are accumulated in
    6 separate lists so the ordering gets lost. Then, the templating just
    7 blindly puts the multi-valued {{{##core#sets!}}} after the others.
    8 Currently, the "dimensions" of the lists are different, so to speak --
    9 in the code, vars/vals gets a list of variables/expressions, whereas
    10 mvars/mvals gets a list of lists of variables/expressions -- and
    11 mvars/mvals has to be processed a bit more to produce a c-w-v.
