I think we'd better modify the file goops/describe.scm so that it
merges ice-9/doc.scm, though I'm not sure if GOOPS supports docstrings.
Once `describe' comes to display enough information, we can redirect
the output to the Emacs buffer.

Maybe we should discuss this part in the guile mailing list.
