# What I did:

I used ,br with a generic function, specifically I entered ",br initialize".

# What I expected:

I wasn't sure what to expect, given that generic functions can have
many implementations, but since there was no error and a "generic"
object appeared in the output of ",traps", I expected at least that
when _some_ initialize method was called I would be put into a
debugging prompt.

# What actually happened:

When I called a function that called the initialize method ("make" in
this particular case), it completed successfully, without any debug
prompt.

I pushed the patch from the 24 of October (commit
3981feaa11aa0d866ff1d99128f0ace3). It's not perfect,
but I'm marking this one done. Sorry it took a while.
