Yes it did (having written a mudlib using 2.4.5 as a springboard). 
However, I'd argue that most admins attempting something with 2.4.5 don't
see the lack of classes as a feature and then proceed to code in guilds. 
If the base diku server was supplied with no classes, I suspect the same
would have happened. 

That blurb was written by me so blame me.  Besides, I'm sure Raph wouldn't
describe his mud as "strange". :)

Will alter.  Thanks for the other comments, Greg.
