I have read Sean's thread about instance initialization when it was on the list, but when it came to my special problem it didn't occur to me that it would be solved by Sean's patch. Do you think this is the case, Robert?
Sean's new methods recreate-instance-using-class and recreate-instance might indeed solve my problem... although I can't pretend right now to know how they need to be used in my case. Will check this out later.
