Bug Description

Is there a way to see all currently muffled conditions?

If not, should DESCRIBE-COMPILER-POLICY do it, or should a new function be added?

If D-C-P, should the list of muffled conditions be displayed by default or only with
some key parameter?

If the latter, D-C-P currently takes an &optional, should the API be changed?

+1 from here.

only use &optionals in a public API if it's a really simple function that will never be extended. but of course we all know that 640k should be enough for everyone, so... :)

None regarding the lambda-list, but in an ideal world there would also be SB-EXT:CURRENT-COMPILER-POLICY or something that returned the compiler policy as a list that could be wrapped in (PROCLAIM `(OPTIMIZE ,@POLICY)).
