-;;; Compiling next methods into method bodies
-;;;
-
-;;; So, for the reader: there basic idea is that, given that the
-;;; semantics of `next-method' depend on the concrete types being
-;;; dispatched, why not compile a specific procedure to handle each type
-;;; combination that we see at runtime.
-;;;
-;;; In theory we can do much better than a bytecode compilation, because
-;;; we know the *exact* types of the arguments. It's ideal for native
-;;; compilation. A task for the future.
-;;;
-;;; I think this whole generic application mess would benefit from a
-;;; strict MOP.
