OK, I've entered a Tracker issue about this, including a tarball
which I have used to fix the problem in a hosed Data.fs of mine:

   http://www.zope.org/Products/PTK/Tracker/143

Please try the workaround, and let me know if it resolves your
immediate problem.  The longer-term fix interacts with several
ZClass issues, and will likely be addressed later in the Zope 2.3
release cycle.
