)lisp (setq miss t) will cause messages to be output that show the arguments to the getdatabase function. The first argument is the constructor and the second argument is the key.

There is a bug somewhere. Given the sequence:

  )lisp (setq *miss* t)
  1
  1
  x
  x <--- getdatabase gets called with constructor=CONSTRUCTORMODEMAP key=Variable

which is incorrect.
