     Uhm, sorry, I don't get it.  Such a constructor would only
be callable from the constructor of a subclass, and there's still
nothing to require that the subclass provide any particular style
of constructor.

     (As mentioned elsethread I don't think interface-mandated
constructors would be useful.  I'm just wondering how you'd use
abstract classes to achieve the not-so-useful effect.)
