This is already possible i have quite some code lying around that does

* method creation
* generic function creation
* class creation

and probably some more. It took my quite some time to figure it all
out (mostly by studying the goops C code) and it probably is not very
clean (depends on GOOPS internals) in some places. However, it works,
but is not very useful due to the goops-1 bug :-(

You can have a look most of the code at [1]. Note that it is C++. YMMV.
