    To clarify, are you proposing that:

        (dolist (x *broken-mail-hosts*)
           (defmethod additional-mail-headers
                      ((host (singleton (parse-host x))))
             '(:line-fold "No")))

    be a reasonable way to assign individual methods to, say, a large number
    of individuals?

Yes.

    Implementations will have to be careful to allow objects which have
    individual methods to be GCd, won't they?

Not my department.  Any form of individual methods has this problem.
