	Oh mumble, you're probably right.  So setf of find-class will work, but
	setf of find-method won't.  What about setf of find-generic-function, leave
	that out too?

    What is find-generic-function?

I guess I was hoping in vain that ensure-generic-function would be given
a more consistent name.  Just forget it.  But before you forget it, think
about the fact that ensure-generic-function takes an environment argument
but symbol-function doesn't; thus you can't check whether a generic function
exists in the compile time environment without creating it.
