#172: DOCUMENTATION does not work for generic functions
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  mevenson     |       Owner:  ehuelsmann
     Type:  defect       |      Status:  new       
 Priority:  minor        |   Milestone:  0.28      
Component:  interpreter  |     Version:  0.27      
 Keywords:               |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 DOCUMENTATION does not seem to be able to retrieve the docstring for
 generic functions:

 {{{
 (defgeneric foo nil (:documentation "Ipso facto"))
 #<STANDARD-GENERIC-FUNCTION FOO {6901DFA5}>
 CL-USER> (documentation 'foo 'function)
 NIL
 }}}

 If one inspects the generic function in SLIME, one sees that the
 documentation slot does have a value, so this is a problem in
 DOCUMENTATION.
