1 Issue 4 (Local nicknames of the package being defined)
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

1.1 Description
───────────────

  It is not clear whether /local nicknames/ of the package *being
  defined* should affect `make-package' or `defpackage'.


1.2 Examples
────────────

  ┌────
  │ (defpackage #:foo-a (:use) (:export #:x))
  │ (defpackage #:foo-b (:use) (:export #:x))
  │ 
  │ (defpackage #:bar
  │   (:local-nicknames (#:foo-a #:foo-b)
  │                     (#:foo-b #:foo-a))
  │   (:use #:foo-a))
  │ 
  │ (package-name (symbol-package 'bar::x))
  │ ; => "FOO-A"  (sbcl, ccl, acl, abcl, clasp, lispworks)
  │ ; => "FOO-B"  (ecl)
  └────


1.3 Current behavior
────────────────────

  sbcl, ccl, acl, abcl, lispworks: Nothing is affected.

  ecl: `:use', `:import-from' and `:shadowing-import-from' clauses are
    affected.

  clasp: `:local-nicknames' clause is affected by /local nicknames/
    introduced by previous `:local-nicknames' clauses.


1.4 Proposal NO-EFFECT
──────────────────────

  Local nicknames of the package being defined must not affect any of
  the defpackage clauses (`:use', `:local-nicknames', `:import-from',
  `:shadowing-import-from').

  The keyword argument `:local-nicknames' to `make-package' must not
  affect the `:use' keyword argument either.
