You know, this makes me wonder if we should just get rid of #allObjectsDo:
entirely. Anyone that wants to visit all the objects in the image can use
#someObject and #nextObject directly, and write the loop in a way that
makes sense for that use case. That also means we don't have problems on
older VMs because inlining the loop means we don't create a block context
every time we go through it.
