Which of the two functions is supposed to be a generic function? X3J13 88-002R doesn't mention describe-object at all. In Symbolics CLOS, describe is a regular function that calls describe-object for CLOS objects. Has there been a change in the standard or does the Symbolics implementation violate the standard?
