> How about frobing :predicate?

I don't know about oort, but 5.8.8 and 5.9.0 have a bug such that
setting :predicate nil doesn't work.  (I just reported this to the
bugs list; my apologies if it's been reported before.)

Since you can use functions as well as variables, I've worked around
the bug with this stupid function:

(defun nullity ()
	nil)

and then I use 
      :predicate (nullity)  ; bug workaround for nil
