Agreed. Thanks for spending time on this.

I read through the patch, and tried to match up CLOS names that were
affected by the rename.
For reference, here are some CLOS functions that were renamed in the patch:
class-name -> eieio-class-name
http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/f_class_.htm
class-of (was alias to object-class) -> obsoleted
http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/f_clas_1.htm
I didn't find anything else.
So on the whole, it didn't affect the CLOS functions much at all. Good
Stuff.
Thanks!
Eric
