Changes (by ramey):

  * status:  assigned => closed
  * resolution:  => fixed

Comment:

 I have studied this interesting case and made changes such that the
 assertion is no longer invoked.

 However, there is another problem with this example which prevents it from
 working.  The saving of T resolves to:

 T -> A -> E -> C, I -> *J (abstract base) -> B

 But no instance of B as been yet serialized so it is not registered with
 the archive. This can be remedied by inverting a number of ways:

 a) the sequence A, B in serializaiton can be inverted[[BR]]
 b) using ar.register(...) to explicitly register B[[BR]]
 c) exporting B
