Hi Peter,
thanks for the reports. I will answer them one by one below.

An example is not the same thing as a rule, but in any case, since all
other implementations use uppercase letters, we will do the same. Thanks
for the patch.

The list of allowed and required keys for an effective method is the
combination of those from the generic function and those from each
applicable method. If this key has to be supported by some method, it may
add it, but deleting keys from the GF I think is wrong.

Puf, another non-ANSI thingy. Anyway, it is now part of ECL as well.

Thanks a lot!

In fixup.lsp functions are converted into methods. I added one more line
for (SETF GENERIC-FUNCTION-NAME), which is now a generic function.
Thanks for the great work and all the help, Peter!
