Not at all. The function PRINT-OBJECT is called when lispinit.mem is
built (on objects of type CONDITION), and the info that it has been called
is remembered in lispinit.mem.
I am a bit unhappy about this warning because PRINT-OBJECT is meant to
be extended even after having been called, but I don't see in which
respect PRINT-OBJECT is special among all generic functions.
