 * We keep this class to support NSClassFromString() which

 * not a fail-safe implementation.  You should rely on
 * [EONull+null] and pointer comparison.  Do not rely on
 * [obj isKindOfClass: NSClassFromString(@"EONull")]
 * or similar constructs.  They will return wrong results.
 * This is a small backdraw from using the new extension classes
 * in base / Foundation.
