Not too much. CLOS objects are already accepted by funcall, but only
when they are marked as funcallable.

(clos::set-funcallable-instance-function instance dispatch)

instance = a standard object
dispatch = T, NIL or a function object

When DISPATCH = NIL, the instance becomes not funcallable. When it is
T, then it is a standard ECL funcallable object using its own
dispatch. When it is a lisp function then it should have a signature
(lambda (funcallable-instance arg1 arg2 ...) ..) or similar one, and
you will be responsible for writing it.
