[Ecls-list] Methods with no arguments

[Julian Stecklina]

Hello,

I tried to fix ECL in regard to methods with no arguments. The patch is
attached. I am unsure whether this breaks something else, but at least ECL now
loads swank-backend.lisp and swank.lisp from SLIME.

Btw, I noticed:

> (defmethod foo (x) 1)
#<a STANDARD-METHOD>
Top level.
> (defmethod foo (x y) 2)
NIL is not of type CONS.
Broken at CLOS::INSTALL-METHOD.
>> :backtrace
Backtrace: CLOS::INSTALL-METHOD > eval
Broken at CLOS::INSTALL-METHOD.

My understanding of the code in clos/kernel.lsp is too limited to fix this. :-/

Regards,
Julian Stecklina
