I've hit this problem before with Array. I guess I forgot to move this 
to Field. The solution is to not use View1 in the call to read(), but 
rather to make another class, View0, that handles this special case. 
This removes the circular dependency when pre-instantiating View1. This 
is inelegant and it might not always work, but it made KCC happy before. 
See Array.h.
