Thanks!

I now understand what you mean by the second call to symbol-value not being
needed. The previous behavior only chose this "branch" of the cond if
symbol-value was not nil. To keep this behavior but only have one call to
symbol-value, why not change to (keep the symbol-value in the cond as
opposed to the body of the branch):

((and (symbolp file) (boundp file) (symbol-value file)))

to keep the old behavior of the cond statement?
