That should be line 234 of BasClass.pm, not BasPlug.pm, although you've
pasted the correct line.

The GenericList.pm on line 94 has
my $self = (defined $hashArgOptLists) ? new BasClas($classifierslist, $inputargs, $hashArgOptLists) : new BasClas($classifierslist, $inputargs);

but as you pointed out, the BasClass tries to use $hashArgOptLists without
checking if it was passed in. I'm not sure if this is a bug in
GenericList or BasClas - this might have to wait until Michael gets
back, since he wrote the GenericList classifier.
