I get this:  

Error:  conflict between versions of a reapeatedly inherited feature.  
What to do:  list one of the versions in exactly one Select clause.  

Class:  MY_CLASS

The funny thing is, the compiler does not tell me the name(s) of the
feature which is conflicting.  This seems odd.  It is also impossible
to find by trial and error as the class heirarchy is getting a bit
complex.

Any suggestions?  Has this been seen before?

This is a regression in the 6.2 release that prevents the display of the full
error message for this particular kind of errors. You can try the intermediate 6.3
if you haven't yet figured out the reason of the error.
