unfortunetly this makes it hard to work on slime (though i'll admit
that executing the defimplementation forms multiple times doesn't
happen much an more). maybe it'd be better to set some flag at after
loading the file and test on that? if someone wants to work on slime
they just turn that single flag off and continue as if nothing
happened.
