ok, here the cleaned case. 

Problem appears if A->B->C, A references B, B-mapper is polymorphic 
too, and there are 3 instances saved - A,B,C.

It is similar as in 
http://groups.google.com/group/sqlalchemy/browse_thread/thread/5f05c11e3c168fb5/3c956e71dc724214#3c956e71dc724214
but there the lazy-load was not loading at all (which 2362 fixed), 
while in current case different object is loaded (C instead of B) - 
for pre-2362 - and mapper-compilation fails in 2362+.

well, it just tests if the str(newobject) matches the str(oldobject), 
where the newobject is getby(id) and __str__() is made to include 
everything interesting.

u can remove whole polymorphic_union on A and replace it by 
tableA.select() and it still fails in same way.
But, if u make it work without the union, it may or may not work with 
the union. So that makes 2 testcases then ;-)

i've tried to remove more stuff but then the bug runs away. 
It does not need an instance of C, and it does not need a C-join 
inside B-union, but it needs the C mapper to inherit B-mapper.
