+PCT is set to switch to a new meta-model implementation for its classes
+and objects. This will most likely only affect those who rely on the
+interface of what is returned from .HOW, or rely on PCT objects exhibiting
+various other peculiarities of the P6object implementation. (Even when that
+is the case, the HOW API will not be changing too drastically, so for most
+PCT users there should be little to no upheavel.)
