Ah, mutation in the "mutable state" sense. When I was doing some light experimenting with static analysis in the early days of the contest, I looked for variables storing anything involving eval (or involving another variable storing anything involving eval, etc.), and just treated (sounds like that should be "trought" or something) set! calls as define calls--another chance for a variable to become contaminated with evalness. Could you give an example of a case where set! makes things harder to analyze?
