Thanks, that sent me off to an interesting read in the docs.. from
which I conclude that syntax-parameterize is the analogue of
macrolet in the Common Lisp world.

If I understand everything correctly, your version differs from my
original code in that the test is done at macro expansion time, rather
that at evaluation time. That shouldn't be a problem for the
application I have in mind.

Your example does the opposite of Greg's: it factors out the pattern
but not the expansion. I'll try to figure out if I can combine both of
your suggestions to factor out both aspects, but not today...

Thanks again,
  Konrad.
