 
The metaclass 
funcallable-standard-object
 provides the default 
:direct-superclasses
 for instances of 
funcallable-standard-class
 and its subclasses. 
funcallable-standard-object
 is implemented as described in AMOP except for a different order in the class precedence list.
In AMOP the class precedence list is
(funcallable-standard-object standard-object function t)
whereas in LispWorks the class precedence list is
(funcallable-standard-object function standard-object t)
 
LispWorks is like this to be compliant with the rules in the ANSI Common Lisp Standard.
The AMOP class precedence list implies a class precedence for 
generic-function
 which violates the last sentence in ANSI Common Lisp 4.2.2 Type Relationships. See www.lispworks.com/reference/HyperSpec/Body/04_bb.htm.
