Honestly, this is truly horrible (sorry, Peter). Just try to read it aloud: "der Kind des Typkonstruktors ...".

Indeed. Moreover, my impression is that many Germans rather tend to say "die Kind" instead when they have to, maybe because that is the gender you have for "Sorte", "Art", and "Gattung". -- Andreas Rossberg, rossberg@ps.uni-sb.de Let's get rid of those possible thingies! -- TB
