I'm at 203 fails out of 4246.  I fixed SIMPLE-BASE-STRING.8, which was wrong.
I've added various additional tests, some of which are failing.
For example, there are five tests of FLET in error situations
that should be causing PROGRAM-ERRORs.

Use the symbol index of the hyperspec.  PACKAGE-ERROR is defined in
section 9, 'Conditions'.
