I can't reproduce this here.  Are you *sure* that your
ZClass products survived the upgrade from 2.3.1b3 to
2.3.1?  The "Cannot create Poll" message on line 471
of CMFCore/TypesTool.py can only come about if the
'_getFactoryMethod' call fails, which would typically
mean that either:

 * Zope can't find the Product or its factory method

or:

 * Your user doesn't have permission to invoke the
   factory method.

Hope this helps!
