Some items mentioned by Cathy Harris (at Harvard?):

From the second preliminary version of the Lisp Machine Manual (Jan 79)

"If you look at the code in READ, you will see some magic hair which is used
 to make sure that multiple values pass back through all this correctly.  This
 will eventually become unnecessary."

And from the source code for T version 2.6 (perhaps this answers net.ai
people's questions about T)

"This is a real hack.  I bet you don't understand it."
