I remember putting the code in Comm 4.x, but I was unaware that anyone 
actually got to code to work (no tokens I knew of supported 
Initialization in this manner, they almost all required additional 
information at init time, so could only be initialzied by their own 
programs). In this case I suspect a bug against PSM may be in order.
