#353 Reinitialization of class doesn't call finalize-inheritance

[Pascal Costanza]

In the current clisp version, when reinitialize-instance is applied to a class
metaobject, finalize-inheritance is not necessarily reapplied to that class
metaobject as well, although the CLOS MOP specification says so. (See
Section "Reinitialization of Class Metaobjects".)

This is important because there is otherwise no reliable way to determine
whether this happened or not, so a user cannot ensure a call to finalize-
inheritance, at least not in a straightforward way. However, a user-defined
metaclass may want to rely on the fact that a user-defined method on
finalize-inheritance is actually executed on reinitialization.

thank you for your bug report.
the bug has been fixed in the CVS tree.
you can either wait for the next release (recommended)
or check out the current CVS tree (see http://clisp.cons.org\)
and build CLISP from the sources (be advised that between
releases the CVS tree is very unstable and may not even build
on your platform).
