Actually, the notes from the CMUCL and SBCL compiler say that unless
the constant is going to be inlined everywhere it's used, it's much
clever to use defparameter, which avoids what only amounts to waste of
memory by counter-productive copying. But who am I to tell?
So maybe have it (define-constant-structure ...) and expand to
defparameter on CMUCL and SBCL...
