Thanks ... this should be fixed in CVS now.
At the time when NSProxy was implemented, the behavior of many methods
was
undocumented. Now the MacOS-X documentation covers more methods, and
makes
it clear that -isKindOfClass: should be forwarded to the remote object
(though
-class apparently should not).
Sorry it took a while, but I wanted to document NSProxy and correct the
regression tests too.
