From the fact in the original message that the two variables remained at the 
default of zero my assumption was that neither piece of advice from the 
previous thread on this was followed, those being :-

1) Leave the 'prefer coder' checkbox checked, because it's more consistent, 
arguably fixes a longstanding bug, and remembering when you've turned it on and 
off is likely to lead to confusion. 
2) Don't put initialisation code directly in initWithCoder: but factor it out 
to a separate method called from all the init routines, so it doesn't matter 
which one is called, they all funnel through the same setup code.
