Behavior question

[Peter Haworth]

Thanks Jacque, that might have yielded a clue. When I use send, I get a
runtime error "can't find handler".

I've had issues in the past with behavior references not being resolved, to
the extent that I wrote a handler to re-establish all object behavior
references when my stack opens.  Maybe this is another manifestation of
that problem.
