Ben?
Aidan, what do you think is sane behavior in that case? It seems to
me that it's not obvious how matches with '(x not-yet-defined) should
be done. In some cases you would want the match to succeed (because
the semantic requirement can't fail if the option is not there), in
others, to fail (because the semantic requirement can't succeed), no?
