This is currently in common-dylan ... we should be able to move it to dylan though since the debug-message that it uses is in dylan already.

When this happens, the documentation about this in the core reference should be updated.

What would moving it buy?

Why define it as sideways somewhere, if it can as well be defined where all its imports are from?

I mean, I don't know if there is any library depending on the side-effect that if you only import dylan, not common-dylan that there is no such default-handler for ... (well, debug-message is doing nothing on UNIX, printf using C-back-end)

I think the question is what does not moving it buy? The current location means that you get one behavior if you use common-dylan, one if you don't and that makes it pretty confusing ... with only a small note in the docs.

It seems fairly clear that the current situation is a leftover from a time past where the debug-message wasn't available in the dylan library ... now that it is, we should have a consistent behavior.
