Remember that Swarm has the notion of object phases.  The set of
methods that are available at a given time are bundled in different
classes generated at runtime.  isKindOf: will be referencing those
`implementation' classes and so may give unexpected results.  

It's better to use conformsTo, since that won't require using the
behinds-the-scenes class names.
