In practice, people simply bind top-level variables to parameter objects
and use them to emulate Common Lisp dynamic variables.  But parameters
have a great deal more flexibility, being in fact first-class (like most
things in the Lambda Order): they can be passed or returned by procedures,
stored in data structures, bound to local variables, etc.
