Macro Forms as Places

A macro form can be used as a place, in which case Common Lisp expands the macro form

as if by macroexpand-1

and then uses the macro expansion in place of the original place.

Such macro expansion is attempted only after exhausting all other possibilities other than expanding into a call to a function named (setf reader).
