Description

deftypes are supposed to be relatively 'clean'. Defining print-dup on them might conflict with their other intended uses - e.g. if you use a deftype and implement IPersistentSet you can't print due to this conflict.

Erm, ditto print-method.

Also, was this put in originally in order to support deftypes in code?

Rich,

Removed print-method also.

print-dup was initially put in lieu of compiler support, its remaining was not intended. print-method was put to provide a prettier representation and I was not aware of the larger implications. Thank you for the ticket, I hope they didn't cause any annoyances.
