Oops, sorry;  the symptom looked just like a recent PTK one.  I'm
afraid I haven't looked at the Membership product recently, so I
don't know what to suggest.  One guess would be to re-order the
base classes;  maybe the Membership.PortalMember class
has/inherits "do-nothing-because-we-can't-contain-anything"
versions of 'objectIds'/'objectValues'/'objectItems'?  Putting
ObjectManager first in the list would resolve that (but might
have other side effects).

Hope that gives you something to go on.  I'm CC'ing Bill
Anderson, who is the maintainer of the Membership product, in
case he has further ideas.
