Sorry but I not certain everything is working as expected.

I'm trying to add another test to the eieio part
(test/lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-tests/eieio-test-persist.el) but when I did
try the simple receipt which Eric had posted some times ago I end in the
debugger.

;;; Commentary:
;;
;; The eieio-persistent base-class provides a vital service, that
;; could be used to accidentally load in malicious code.  As such,
;; something as simple as calling eval on the generated code can't be
;; used.  These tests exercises various flavors of data that might be
;; in a persistent object, and tries to save/load them.
