continueTransaction misleading in some cases involving rc objects

Using continueTransaction with instances of reduced-conflict classes
can, under certain circumstances, yield spurious commit failures. If
you're updating an instance of a reduced-conflict class and you send
the message "continueTransaction", the transaction may later fail as a
result of an unintended interaction between these two features.

Workaround

The work-around is to either use reduced-conflict classes or
"continueTransaction", but not both.
