As long as the feature list is allowed to be a subset
of all features, mainly to be used for logging.

Kawa allows class-exists:ClassName as a feature, which
is true if the class ClassName is available (in the classpath)
at macro-expansion time.  Obviously a complete list of
features of this form would be expensive to compute.
