I've seen that allright.  To be honest, I do not follow this
but I found out if you do

   set opts "-a"
   ns_parseargs $opts ""

it does not core. Then I looked into the TclDeleteLiteralTable
and saw that they really do need to get internal string rep
of the object for some strange lookups. So, I reasoned that
if you *only* convert the internal rep, the string rep should
not actually change. Therefore it  *might* not be neccessary
to trash it. By *virtualy* conecting those two facts, I decided
to give it a try *without* trashing the string rep and it worked
fine. So, if you need a very precise answer at the moment, I can't
give it. I'd need to dig it even more. But since it seems to work
now as-is, I'd leave it so.
