     here, assuming this call to -encodeConditionalObject: is mirrored
     by a -decodeObject, we don't try to encode *forward*
     references.

     Note that this means objects that use -encodeConditionalObject:
     that are encoded in the GNU style might decode a nil where
     NeXT-style encoded would not.  I don't see this a huge problem;
     at least not as bad as NeXT coding mechanism that actually causes
     crashes in situations where GNU's does fine.  Still, if we wanted
     to fix this, we might be able to build a kludgy fix based on
     detecting when this would happen, rewinding the stream to the
