The "Kawa developers" is mostly me, and I'm focused on other projects.
The problem is because a new declaration for y is created. And that turned out
to be a kludge done to fix this: https://gitlab.com/kashell/Kawa/-/issues/44
See the code in kawa/standard/set_b.java following
// A kludge to treat interactive set! as similar to (re-)definition.
It probably makes sense to remove this kludge - but then trace/untrace
breaks for functions defined in a REPL. A better fix for issue 44 may
be possible.
Kawa is very focused on efficiency, compilation, and static analysis.
A REPL where anything can be redefined is the opposite. Supporting
both is difficult.
