Thank you Yuval,

However I want to avoid putting the call into each BUILD that is the 
last in the hierarchy. If I decide to subclass from Two, I have to move 
the call manually. The idea behind my question is to be able to check if 
all constructors worked "correctly", for example consumed all named 
parameters.
