Neither CLtL2 nor AMOP deal with what happens to objects that are dumped (as
in SAVE-APPLICATION) and restored. Not surprising since SAVE-APPLICATION is
not part of the standard.
Is there (or will there be in 2.1) a MOP extension in MCL to deal with this?
I see the need for a way to wipe out some slots before they are saved (e.g. if
they point to the Mac heap) and reinitialize them on restore.
This is obviously related to MAKE-LOAD-FORM. Is SAVE-APPLICATION using MAKE-
LOAD-FORM?
