Well, that's why you don't call basicNew unless you really mean it.

The problem is that you need to decide if you're doing it the Squeak
way or not.

What I described in my earlier post is the Squeak way, and the way
I learned looking at the Smalltalk image in 1981.  If you want to
do it the Objective C way, be prepared for some incompatibility.
