#239: defgeneric with unsuitable :generic-function-class gives incomprehensible
error

 Priority:  minor      |   Milestone:

 Compiling and loading the following (incorrect) file gives an error saying
 that foo-generic-function is not of type standard-generic-function.  The
 real error is that foo-generic-function must be defined with (:metaclass
 funcallable-standard-class) to be suitable as a generic function class.

 {{{
 (require :clos)

 (defclass foo-generic-function (standard-generic-function))

 (defgeneric goo (a b)
   (:generic-function-class foo-generic-function)
   (:method (a b)
     (princ "default method")))

 (print #'goo)
 }}}

 The attached patch would emit a full warning in defgeneric, but currently
 find-class does not implement correct behavior when called with 3
 parameters.
