The latest CLOS specs no longer have an :accessor-prefix class-option and now
include :accessor as a slot option, as well as :reader, :writer and other slot
related stuff.  Therefore, you would use:
	(defclass foo ()
		  ((slot1 :accessor slot1
			  :initform NIL)
		   ...
		   ))

	(defmethod bar ((f foo))
		   ...
