I was trying to specialize a method of <graphics> using <font> and a
method of <font> using <graphics>. This created a circular reference
which I resolved by using <top> instead. 

Another solution is to split, say, <graphics> into graphics.scm (class
definition) and graphics_impl.scm (methods) and then use graphics.scm but
not graphics_impl.scm in font.scm.
