From what I can remember, the main problem is not in coops itself, but
in record-variants, that uses low-level ##sys# procedures to define
records and doesn’t use the right tags (which don’t work with
define-record-printer and in turn prevent print-object methods from
working as intended).

I think with the module prefix, any egg using the low-level structure
procedures have to be updated.

If I remember correctly, at SaarCHICKEN we pretty much settled on the
solution of using the record name variable containing the correct tag,
which is the most correct and elegant solution, and should fix every
one of these problems, not just `record-instance?`
