This fits my use-model pretty well -- I tend to turn trace on one function at a time, and then untrace the whole lot with (untrace). Most annoying to have to watch the minibuffer to make sure I don't accidentally trace something I've already traced...

hi,

C-c C-t prints the status. So, if you can't remember whether a function is traced: toggle two times. But I guess most people don't bother to think so far; the enable/disable version of the commands is probably easier to use than the toggle variant.

this patch changes slime-toggle-trace-fdefinition ot slime-trace-fdefinition. If no prefix argumnet is supplied tre function at point is traced, always, if one prefix argument is supplied it is untraced.

The prefix argument was already used for another purpose: to enable (unreliable) parsing on the Emacs side, for labels etc. I would prefer to disable that parsing instead of enabling it.
