(defprotocol P (-foo [this]))

This code generates a reflective call to a non-existing foo field instead of the correct -foo method.

I was told by Christophe Grand that changing the line 557 in core_deftype.clj from:

(. ~(with-meta target {:tag on-interface}) ~(or on-method method) ~@(rest gargs))

to

(. ~(with-meta target {:tag on-interface}) (~(or on-method method) ~@(rest gargs)))

is a quick fix. However I don't know too much about the compilation specifics of . to judge whether this is the correct fix.

Issue reproduction:

Clojure
user=> (set! *warn-on-reflection* true)
true
user=> (defprotocol P (-foo [this]))
P
Reflection warning, REPL:4 - reference to field foo can't be resolved.
