"Let's take an example of a claimed irreducibly complex system - haemoglobin (the same example as I use in the other topic for consistency.) Would it not be possible for an ancestor of cats and lynxes evolving into both species, taking its irreducibly complex haemoglobin with it?"
I wasn't aware that haemoglobin was considered an irreducibly complex system. In fact, Behe made it very clear that he thinks haemoglobin is a good example of a system that CAN be explained within the Darwinian framework.

I have, of course, encountered claims of quoting out of context directed towards Creationists more times than I can remember. Certainly, I will admit that occasionally I see a quote that is a bit out of context.
But I don't understand why evolutionists get so upset whenever a Creationist presents a quote from an evolutionist which does not support evolutionary theory. They act as though Creationists are trying to show that evolutionists agree with them. This is simply not the case, it's just that a certain scientist may know that a certain area of evolutionary theory does not have good evidence as of yet. Claims of Creationist mis-quotation are, in my opinion, often ill-founded.
