Hmm, I don't recall writing this explanation which is a good one except
the last bit is not true.  The patch reverts to the original behaviour
of calling slime-find-buffer-package.

I always use this command through the REPL buffer; indeed nothing is
inserted in that case but that's not what happens if this command is
invoked in another buffer.  That might be a good thing for
slime-repl-set-package since the repl's package doesn't necessarily
match the buffer's.  For slime-set-package, I don't know; I don't
actually understand what it's used for.
