Using `macrolet` to allow a `funcallable-standard-class` to be invoked without
using `funcall` directly, and let the macroexpansion do that instead:

```
#!/usr/bin/env li

(asdf:load-system :closer-mop)

(defclass constructor ()
  ((name   :initarg :name   :accessor constructor-name))
  (:metaclass closer-mop:funcallable-standard-class))

(defmethod initialize-instance :after ((c constructor) &key)
  (with-slots (name) c
    (closer-mop:set-funcallable-instance-function
     c
     (lambda (x)
       (format t "~s: ~s - ~s~%" name :funcalled x)))))

(let ((c (make-instance 'constructor :name "the-name")))
  (funcall c 1))

(let ((c (make-instance 'constructor :name "the-name")))
  (macrolet ((c (&body body)
               `(funcall c ,@body)))
    (funcall c 2)
    (c 3)))
```
