   * "too much recursion" mechanism. If I remove the 'new' from the code below
   * this is safely caught in both debug and release builds. The 'new' causes a
   * lookup for the Constructor name and seems to (at least) double the number
   * of items on the C stack for the given interpLevel depth.
