Apologies for not playing earlier, but for the record I agree that
this is the right answer. The GOOPS code has make-xxx procedures that
can be used programmatically for all the important things (classes,
methods, generics etc.), and the define-xxx macros that we mostly use
are wrappers around these.
One final thought: recommend changing <my-class> to <my-metaclass> (if
you still need it, given make-class).

Neil
