I can't speak from experience how well Smalltalk does the job, but
If you use their graphical browser by calling
(inspect (find-class 'class-in-question))
you can rather easily navigate the class meta-object inheritance tree.
I'm not a CL\PC expert, so maybe I'm not aware of a tool for showing a
graphical hierarchy, but I usually find that simple (inspect)
navigation of meta-objects tells me what I need to know. They do have
a reasonably full implementation of the AMOP MOP.
I hope that helps.
