So you are arguing, that the body should be evaluated and macro-expanded
in the null environment. That's not like progn at all. Obviously, I
disagree. I also note that
emacs -Q --batch -l bug.el
prints:
Eager macro-expansion failure: (void-function foo)
Eager macro-expansion failure: (void-function foo)
Symbol’s function definition is void: foo
which I also consider a bug.
