I don't thing the poblem is in getTarget() because when the exception is=20
thrown that method is never called. The exception is thrown when=20
"__bobo_traverse__"  returns "getattr(linkObject, 'portal_url')" and only=
=20
when we are working with links in the CMF interface, not the ZMI.

Any suggestions/questions?
Kind regards.
