Hi,

Attached are two proposed patches related to compatibility for EIEIO and 
EDE.

The EIEIO patch helps with loading old EDE save files.  It updates 
existing compatibility for the 1st object name argument to constructor 
during object loading from a file.  In older versions of EIEIO, objects 
were saved with a 'name'.  New EIEIO skips the name on load.  This patch 
will apply the name to the :object-name slot if it is a subclass of 
eieio-named.  This will compatibly bring in old objects and maintain the 
name.

I tried it with the existing eieio tests which passed.

The EDE patch brings over a change from the CEDET repository on Source 
Forge that enables project types detected via a function.  The function 
based project types were never integrated into Emacs.  This patch allows 
these old project types from SourceForge to work with built-in EDE. 
There are no uses of this feature in Emacs, but it is useful for 
integrating new project types that are not easily identified by a 
string, such as android, arduino, fitbit and other tools that usually 
provide their own 'studio' thing.

The EDE patch was written by me before the last 'release' I had signed 
from my company.  The EIEIO patch is new.

Thanks
Eric
