Marius Gerbershagen fdcbe9458d cmp: better dead code elimination
Eliminate dead branches in IF/AND/OR forms if the type of the object
returned by the test form is known to be null or non-null. Get rid of
unnecessary tests in AND/OR forms if we know that a clause cannot
short-circuit the evaluation. Replace NOT forms by T or NIL constants
if we know that the argument is null or non-null.

ECL stands for Embeddable Common-Lisp. The ECL project aims to produce an implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies to the ANSI X3J13 definition of the language.

The term embeddable refers to the fact that ECL includes a Lisp to C compiler, which produces libraries (static or dynamic) that can be called from C programs. Furthermore, ECL can produce standalone executables from Lisp code and can itself be linked to your programs as a shared library. It also features an interpreter for situations when a C compiler isn't available.

ECL supports the operating systems Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly BSD, OpenBSD, Solaris (at least v. 9), Microsoft Windows (MSVC, MinGW and Cygwin) and OSX, running on top of the Intel, Sparc, Alpha, ARM and PowerPC processors. Porting to other architectures should be rather easy.
