New issue 18 by wol...@gm...: GNU runtime doesn't tolerate sending  
messages to metaclass objects
http://code.google.com/p/hoc/issues/detail?id=18

We currently import meta-class objects to Haskell land when a class method
sends a message to super.
This causes at least a lookup of the __getHaskellData__ method and a call to
retain. On Mac OS X, this seems to cause no problems, but the GNU runtime
aborts with an assertion failure.

The call to retain was introduced by enhancement issue #11 (r380, r399,
merged to trunk in r402), but the __getHaskellData__ lookup was there
before.
