The various CEDET tools no longer develop in lock-step with EIEIO
features. We could probably post a stand-alone EIEIO, and CEDET
separately, and let that last EIEIO stand in for Emacs 23.1 users.
The last two times I worked on EIEIO in any depth (performance, and
safely loading saved files,) it was about adding a feature without
breaking anything else in CEDET. I would expect that trend to continue.
