What do you mean with "it does nothing"? It calls the ancestor method, does
it not?

Back to my initial question: It is indeed about a message method.
I have got a message method where "inherited;" and "inherited
MethodName(Param);" is not always the same. The strange thing is: It depends
on how the objects are created. 
Is this a bug?
