[Zope-dev] Strange ZClass permissions problem with 2.2a1

I'm testing 2.2a1.
I have some ZClasses which work fine in 2.1.6. I copied my Data.fs to
the new 2.2a1 install.
As a non-superuser I have taken ownership of the top level of the site.
When I try to access a zclass instance which uses manage_tabs in it's
index_html method, I get the traceback shown below.

The relevant code is checking that the containerbase is not the
accessedbase whatever they are!

If I take out manage_tabs from the offending ZClass index_html method, I
can view index_html (but of course, I can't use the management stuff
built in! making it rather useless), so that's where we're getting into
trouble for sure.

I've tried starting out with a vanilla 2.2a1 Data.fs and importing all
the zclasses and the relevent folders - no difference.

Anyone else seeing this?
Is this worthy of the collector?
