POSNER, Circuit Judge.

This appeal from the denial of a petition for a writ of habeas corpus requires us to consider once again the federal constitutional implications of Wisconsin's procedure for determining whether a criminal defendant should be acquitted because he is insane. See Wis.Stat. § 971.175; Muench v. Israel, 715 F.2d 1124, 1131-33 (7th Cir.1983); Weber v. Israel, 730 F.2d 499
