Dear Wolfgang,
I think this new behaviour is related to the following R 4.0.0 NEWS item:

Your environment "myenv" is attached at position 2 of the search() path
and thus now skip

Dear All,
In R 3.6.3 (and earlier), method dispatch used to work for methods stored in
local environments that are attached to the search path. For example:
myfun <- function(y) {
out <- list(y=y)
class(out) <- "myclass"
return(out)
}
print.myclass <- function(x, ...) print(formatC(x$y
