A neat one, no. A kludge, yes: load the slib function before. In the last
realase of STk, if a generic function overload an existing closure, the old
definition is used as a default. So, if you load common-list-functions first
and Listbox later, the gf will (should) be used for listboxes and the slib
closure will be used for list. As I said before, its a kludge; a better
solution would be to have a module system....
