Everything seems to work fine if I pick the continue restart, however it seems like the standard only permits user extension of DESCRIBE-OBJECT on new classes ( http://www.lispworks.com/reference/HyperSpec/Body/f_desc_1.htm )

I can't figure out exactly why the handler-bind method isn't working though.

Perhaps the error is not a simple-error.
