Not sure how much safer this is, I think we would have to record the
which symbol plists are being modified during `load' so that
`unload-feature' could find them in `load-history' and reverse them
along with functions definitions.  This would get rid of the
compiler-macro entries that were added to cl-defstruct accessor function
symbols, and so they would load successfully the second time round just
like the first (presumably).
