The problem was that Helma tries to resolve macros in the parents of the this
object before looking at the macro handlers in res.handlers. Actually this is
really ugly legacy behaviour, and I think it should have been kicked out in
helma 1.5 or 1.6.

I now "lessened" the effects somehow by only resolving direct prototype hits in
the parent chain, i.e. extended prototypes will not match. But I really think
we should check if we can remove all of this, as it is behaviour that can't be
controlled from the outside and really confusing.
