<masak> next one :)

<masak> this works fine.

<masak> this doesn't.

<masak> bug, right?

<jnthn> oh wtf
* masak submits that one too

<masak> essential part of that last bug there.
<jnthn> Yes, I know.
<masak> it needs to be the same class.
<jnthn> It's when the type is the same as...right.
<jnthn> Because it looks up the type before the proto-object is installed.
<masak> ah! yes, I just realized that.
<masak> pipes sticking out.
<jnthn> Aye, an unfortunate consequence of the way thigns are
currently implemented.
<jnthn> I don't have a fast solution for that.

<masak> bug, right?

Bug fixed as a side-effect of various refactors committed in git
527cb8f, plus tests unfudged.

Thanks,
