Hmmm, classNamed: has always answered nil for nonexistent classes.�� Did this get changed?�� Not sure that's right.�� Why not add checkedClassNamed: or some such?

I created this issue. I am sure that returning nil from methods is always bad design and many books describe it.

Also it is not consistent to #at: method:

Smalltalk globals at: #AbsentClass. "=> raise error"
Smalltalk globals classNamed: #AbsentClass "=> nil"��
