get-charset-range is not the bottleneck regarding the bootstrap times.
If you had done a profiling of the production of interpreted.mem and
halfcompiled.mem, you would have noticed that
  - it spends 1/4 of its time expanding the code of
    %expand-special-declarations in init.lisp,
  - while loading condition.lisp, it spends most of its time expanding
    CALL-NEXT-METHOD and NEXT-METHOD-P macros.

Lesson of the day: Concentrate on the important things, not on the unimportant
ones.
