+;;;;           Most General Generic-Operator Dispatch
+
+(declare (usual-integrations))
+
+;;; Generic-operator dispatch is implemented here by a discrimination
+;;; list, where the arguments passed to the operator are examined by
+;;; predicates that are supplied at the point of attachment of a
+;;; handler (by ASSIGN-OPERATION).
+
+;;; To be the correct branch all arguments must be accepted by
+;;; the branch predicates, so this makes it necessary to
+;;; backtrack to find another branch where the first argument
+;;; is accepted if the second argument is rejected.  Here
+;;; backtracking is implemented by OR.
