Then it's misnamed, IMO.  The name should be
`setqopt' - or (better) `setq-option', or
similar.

Functions (and macros and special forms) that
set things and evaluate the first arg (the
thing to be set) use the prefix `set-', not
`set', in Emacs.  [Generally, at least, and
there might be no (other) exceptions; dunno.]
