That's only the case, because the 'normal' branch has been fixed back in 
2009 (see Collections-nice.116) to use #grownBy: and therefore #ofSize: 
instead of #new: to create the new instance of the underlying collection.
Yet, we still don't have a test case convering this unusual usage of 
#streamContents:.

OrderedCollection does *that* ok. I must admit to never having looked at LinkedList>#add: ... yup that would be fine too. The only collection hierarchy class I see which doesn't like #add: is Matrix, and I'm not utterly sure that it ought to be under Collection
