Looks like the old nprocedure protocol used in really old lisps to me. ^^

The problem is that macros are not functions, in spite of having the same syntax. How would addpref react if it was passed to map? By quoting map's variable?

You are right there'd be no way to map with addpref. However, doing it in the usual way wouldn't allow this either, so nothing is lost.
