I suddenly had the idea of using which in the following way
which(g,(typeof(x),))!=which(g,(AbstractSupertype,))

to determine that g had a more specific implementation then the fallback 
method defined for AbstractSupertype.

Quickly testing how to use with I typed the following in the REPL and got a 
confusing result. 

*julia> **which(issym,(Matrix,))*

*issym(A::AbstractArray{T,2}) at linalg/generic.jl:251*


*julia> **which(issym,(AbstractMatrix,))*

*issym(A::SparseMatrixCSC{Tv,Ti<:Integer}) at sparse/sparsematrix.jl:1739*


I would have thought that which(issym,(AbstractMatrix,)) would also point 
to the first method. Is this a bug? Should I file an issue?
