STCompiler, at least, uses the #import: message on classes to implement
that pragma.  Unfortunately the empty version in Builtins.st shadowed
the proper definition in ClassDesc.st:


Object: nil error: did not understand #at:ifAbsent:
...
STInST.STCompiler>>acceptMessageNode:


where nil is supposed to be VMSpecialMethods.  Fixed in
*smalltalk--backstage--2.2--patch-68* by promoting said empty version
to ClassDescription.
