Not entirely - MethodWrappers is an extra package with some pretty ugly
code, ObjectsAsMethods seems to Just Work now that VM support is there.
Also, ObjectsAsMethods has surprisingly little overhead - I measure
about 30-40% slower than a normal CompiledMethod, whereas I remember
MethodWrappers having much more than that.
But mostly I just wanted to remind people that ObjectsAsMethods was
there, cause I think it's pretty damn cool. :)
BTW, the counterpart I wanted was CompiledMethod>>run:with:in: ... IIRC
there was some prim introduced for the BC Compiler that would make that
easy?
