New issue 3716 by [hidden email]: Different return value for  
adoptInstance: depending on VM
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3716

This method which is new in 1.2, returns differently depending on whether  
the primitive is present in VM, as the primitive returns the class, while  
the fallback changeClassTo: returns the instance whose class was changed.

Slices for 1.2 and 1.3 will be in inbox shortly for consistently returning  
the class on all VM's.
