It was not loaded by the mcm (that's why it is not underlined and  
sorted to the bottom if you look at the repo).

I assume Andreas took 3.10.2 and simply committed any package in it to  
trunk - including faulty ones like this.

The question is if this is a new method that simply could be removed,  
or if it existed before and got moved out of its rightful package into  
BabySRE. I believe the latter, since the method existed before  
(timestamp 'nk 9/1/2004').
