I don't know the internals really of XOTcl but basically making an 
object a class would mean giving it the methods 'instproc' and 'new' 
and various other stuff, thus allowing an instance of it to be created. 
I guess it's some internal thing if it has to be recreated? In some 
sense it would be 'pure' if this was possible.

I wonder if this has any relevance to changing the meta-class of a 
class?
