Hi! Thanks for the report.

I've (hopefully) fixed the first problem just now in commit 2a12f39ffe8.

Regarding the second one, looks like it's using a more advanced syntax 
that our functions haven't been taught about.

Since the method has been defined through a :method property on 
defgeneric, I suppose cl--generic-search-method should be taught to 
search for such definitions too.

The definition itself could be rewritten in a simpler fashion, though. 
Just using cl-defmethod (the generic is then created implicitly, and the 
arguments list is not repeated).
