No change.  nil is still used on Macintosh as a synonym for NULL in the system header files.

Using the name nil as the end mark of a ct list was discussed pretty
thoroughly during the tuple review. The outcome was that it was changed to
null_type.

The main reason was that some compiler (I'll have to check which it was)
used that name internally, and that caused problems.

I do like nil, but have things
changed since last summer to make it ok to use nil now?
