There are other times when load time compilation happens. If for
example you define a generic function whose lambda list congruence is
'unlike' any generic function in the 'loadup' the compiler will be
invoked. Most people will never see this since PCL pre-defines a lot of
possible conguences. But some will see this occaisonal calling of the
compiler.
The next release of PCL will still have this problem since it isn't too
crippling for anyone.
