I agree -- and I *think* that is what we already do.  Anyhow, I'm
pretty sure that explicit instantiation of a whole class certainly
dumps out the vtable.

Bottom line: we should fix the compiler, if there are problems there.
(And that won't be hard.)  So far, though, my testing indicates there
are no problems...
