Hi, Allen

I am guessing there may still be a QSurvey instance or two that are 
floating about in your ZODB, and somehow this may cause problems due to 
ZClass magic and perhaps due to the unresolved "Interfaces" hook that 
came with 2.6.0.

What I would try:

1.  Make a backup copy of the ZODB.
2.  Reinstall the offending ZClass product*
3.  Delete the remaining instances.  The "find" tab is your friend.
4.  Pack the ZODB

*of course, the QSurvey available on zope.org will not install properly 
on 2.6.0.  I will send you a  .zexp of it that will work in another 
message.  Yes, I will get around to updating the Product, but there are 
a few things I wish to fix first...

And the above may not work.  It's just a first stab at it.  We may have 
to go a few rounds of experimentation.  That's the purpose of the backup.
