The super_* method is only defined after calling ns_overrides. So,  
super_init is defined because you've overridden init, but  
super_initWithContents is not.

Since initWithContents has not been overridden in your subclass, just  
call 'self.initWithContents(value)' - that should fall through to the  
superclass implementation.
