I'd like to look at this, with your permission, Felix. The innards of tinyclos are fresh in my mind and I can easily make define-method parse dotted argument lists. There may be ramifications in the compute-methods sequence but I'll watch out for them and fix them.

Yes, sure. Please go ahead.

I've committed a fix and bumped the version to 1.6.2 (the egg is still marked hidden in the meta file).

There are some basic tests for methods with dotted arguments in tests/run.scm.

Please check this and close the ticket if it's satisfactory.
