Not sure I can help.
In CL, all the p?set[qf] handle symbol macros. I haven't tested this,
but from doc strings I'd say none of these supports symbol macros in
Emacs.
There is also an intricacy here:
Setq, with CL behaviour, would behave like setf for symbol macros. And
setq is in C. I don't know if maintainers would accept such a change in
C (performance, dependencies, ...).
So...
