Ah, I like that idea. I guess a regular (generic) function would also
need to be added since compiler-macros are not guaranteed to be used.
What's the best way to do this with generic functions?

  (setf (fdefinition 'old-name) #'new-name) ;?
  ;; then use a compiler macro here to issue the style-warning.
