Oh, right, I meant *my* __call__. Obviously it's calling *some* call
somewhere, i.e. the one of the folder's index_html.

No exceptions; it just displays the index_html that is defined for the
folder taht the XML document is in.

What is looks like is that my ZClass simply doesn't find my __call__
(defined in my python base class for it) and looks it up by the acquisition
machinery instead. Is this a bug, then, or is it meant to be this way? If
it's meant to be like this, why? :)
