I tried using this snippet, based on what you wrote. I think it was
too heavy a hammer because I wasn't able to get them back again when I
evaluated the buffer afterwards. You don't wear a somewhat lighter
hammer do you? :-)

Actually it's a bit of a shame because when the
inability to delete methods means that my strategy of loading
test-case objects based on introspecting their methods won't work
because methods that I have removed from the source code still hangs
around.

  (mapcar (lambda (each)
	    (fset each nil)
	    (put each 'eieio-method-obarray nil))
	  (eieio-all-generic-functions 'test-case-test))
