I guess Metaclasstalk needs a kind of bootstrap mechanism. Which are  
difficult to package with a .mcz.
I played a bit with a new metaclass hierarchy, and I had problem to  
have a .mcz file. And what I did was simple...

I am not saying that metaclasstalk interferes with traits. I am just  
saying that as it is difficult to produce a .mcz for traits, it is  
(probably) difficult to produce a .mcz for metaclasstalk.
