I would check that the base class is actually being wrapped (correctly) 
and that the subclass actually inherits from it in Perl (you should be 
able to see this by looking at the generated .pm file).

The problem may have to do with the order of things in your interface file 
(e.g., whether the %template comes before the derived class declaration).
