Christophe Rhodes has written the paper "Maintaining Portable Lisp
Programs - It's a bug, not a feature". It examines "the use of
read-time feature conditionals, with particular emphasis on writing
portable Common Lisp code which aspires to both forwards- and
backwards-compatibility". After an introduction and an historical
perspective, the paper reviews existing practices in using read-time
conditionals, and provides some recommendations.
