Seems all it should need is to be able to find the constructor (by the name of the superclass). It seems to know the superclass it is looking for. The only I can think of: Order dependency. The script compiler is supposed to do a topo sort on the classes to ensure that there are no forward references. Possibly the info for that sort got lost, or you are not visiting the AST in that order?
It's no fair defining a constructor for a mixin. Mixins really should not be allowed to have constructors (IMO) because, by definition, they can be mixed in to any class hierarchy, and different ones might have different constructor signatures.
