[closer-devel] ACL 8.0 generic-function-argument-precedence-order

[Vyacheslav Akhmechet]

Hi,

>From what I understand from MOP recommendation
generic-function-argument-precedence-order is meant to return only
required arguments. Quoting the recommendation, "This value is a list
of symbols, a permutation of the required parameters in the lambda
list of the generic function." So far I've verified that this is
honored in SBCL and LispWorks, but not ACL:

(defmethod foo (a b c &rest d) nil)
(generic-function-lambda-list #'foo)
=> (A B C &REST D)

Am I misunderstanding the spec? Are there plans to fix this?
