The fun thing about common lisp, though, is that any given little
utility function you care to write probably already exists.... I was
working on a project last year that caused me to want to resize an
array - I wrote the little routine, then something caused me to look
in the arrays section of Steele, and -- lo and behold -- resize-array
(or something like that).
