I'd like to make M-. work in abcl, and it looks like it wouldn't be too hard
to record source file name, kind (ie. function, macro, etc.), and approximate
file-position ("the next form after this position") info in fasl files. Exact
file-position is doable, but harder.

Ideally, what information is expected from swank-backend:find-definitions, and
how accurate should it be? Is there a minimal subset which slime can go by?
Which lisp/swank backend has the best support for M-.?
