Actually, I'm wrong here, although for a method overriden by an individual 
instance the above is correct. But for methods overriden in a class, the 
virtual method connections would need to be done in the constructor of a 
specific instance, by checking which methods had been defined in ruby and 
disconnecting/reconnecting only those.
