Thanks Gerald. I integrated this a few days ago. Still, I think that

| n |
n := whatever number.
(AnyCollectionClass new: n) size = n

should _always_ evaluate to true (or fail if it doesn't make sense). So 
I pushed some very substantial changes that kept me quite busy for 
several days. Now `OrderedCollection new: 10` will fail. Same for Set, 
Dictionary, Bag and a few others. I've adjusted many packages accordingly.

Cheers,
