Can you please provide a (failing) JUnit test ? The current test suite has a 
lot of examples where it works properly. We need to see the context where it 
fails.

This is not a bug. The implicit tag is ignored when the runtime class is known.
I have added some info here:
http://code.google.com/p/snakeyaml/wiki/Documentation#Tags

There is no way now to add an "explicit" tag based on a regular expression. It 
works in your first example because there you use your own machinery to create 
an instance. You can extend this machinery to create !wheel tag.
