On the other hand, the behavior of Point. might be considered a good thing 
(or not):

user=> (defrecord Point [x y]) 
user.Point
user=> (meta #'Point.)
CompilerException java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resolve var: Point. 
in this context, compiling:(NO_SOURCE_PATH:6:1) 
user=> (meta #'->Point)
{:ns #<Namespace user>, :name ->Point, :arglists ([x y]), :column 1, :doc 
"Positional factory function for class user.Point.", :li
ne 5, :file "NO_SOURCE_PATH"}
user=> (def ->Point 42)
#'user/->Point
user=> ->Point
42
user=> (->Point 3 2)
ClassCastException java.lang.Long cannot be cast to clojure.lang.IFn  
user/eval245 (NO_SOURCE_FILE:10)
user=> (Point. 3 2)
#user.Point{:x 3, :y 2}
user=> (def Point. 43)
#'user/Point.
user=> (Point. 3 2)
#user.Point{:x 3, :y 2}

I can't clobber Point. by def'ing it.  It's as if Clojure turns into a 
Lisp-2 in this one special case.
