When using `describe-function' on a generic function, the resulting
*Help* buffer displays all the information about the function and its
various implementations correctly. However, the hyperlinks provided for
each individual implementation do not go to the location of that
implementation -- they appear to all point to the first method
definition in the file. This makes it impossible to jump directly to a
particular implementation.

I tried this now, and it works for me, so I'm going to go ahead and
guess that it's been fixed in the years since you reported this bug and
I'm closing this bug report. If you can still see this bug, please
reopen and give a more detailed way to reproduce.

Yup, I think it's worked correctly for a while now. Thanks.
