No, I'm saying that the (fn ... in when/unless was wrong in any case, and
shouldn't have been there.  Since we don't use that in the hundreds of
other &rest body macros, it serves to confuse the users who will wonder
why when/unless look odd.

Like I said, if we want to change how we present &rest body to the
users, then we should do so for all of these macros, and not just two.
