For any string <code>pkg</code> that names a package currently known to ACL2,
9
 
<code>(pkg-witness pkg)</code> evaluates to a symbol in that package whose
10
 
<code><a href="SYMBOL-NAME.html">symbol-name</a></code> is the value of constant <code>*pkg-witness-name*</code>.
 
9
<code>(pkg-witness pkg)</code> is a symbol in that package whose <code><a href="SYMBOL-NAME.html">symbol-name</a></code> is
 
10
the value of constant <code>*pkg-witness-name*</code>.  Logically, this is the case
 
11
even if the package is not currently known to ACL2.  However, if
 
12
<code>pkg-witness</code> is called on a string that is not the name of a package known
 
13
to ACL2, a hard Lisp error will result.

<code>(Pkg-witness pkg)</code> has a guard of <code>(stringp pkg)</code>.  However, if
13
 
<code>pkg-witness</code> is called on an argument that is not the name of a package
14
 
known to ACL2, a hard Lisp error will result.
 
15
<code>(Pkg-witness pkg)</code> has a guard of
 
16
<code>(and (stringp pkg) (not (equal pkg "")))</code>.  If <code>pkg</code> is not a string,
 
17
then <code>(pkg-witness pkg)</code> is equal to <code>(pkg-witness "ACL2")</code>
