Which reminds me - I did a really simple Mixin implementation a bit ago 
that I don't think I ever mentioned on the list.  If anyone wants to 
play with it, it's at http://beta4.com/mc/mixins/Mixins-ab.8.mcz .  
Might be useful as a straw-man counterpoint to Traits ;).

IIRC it has some SUnit tests that illustrate the usage.  Note the use 
of "self super foo" instead of "super foo" in mixin methods.
