I also agree with Dave and Mike on this issue, except I'm not sure about
CHANGE-CLASS. Certainly, some way of getting a minimal subset would
make pushing CLOS more deeply into CL implementations more palatable.
I'm not sure, however, if it's possible at this late a date to do
so. It could probably be factored into a Chapter 2.5, between
the Metaobject Protocol and the Programmer Interface, and be
called something like "Environment Hooks", though hooks probably
isn't the right word.
