If there exists a solution that simply makes the ObjectsAsMethodsExample
fail (instead of crash) that would also be OK.

For example, I suppose it could be a choice to "abandon"
primitiveInvokeObjectAsMethod() and run:with:in
and to declare it as "obsolete".

It can be a deliberate choice to make the TestObjectsAsMethods *fail*
in the future ... but preferably not crash.

By fail I mean that when running the TestRunner it marks the test as failed,
and continues to run the other tests.  The current situation is that the VM
crashes and all tests are aborted.

TestObjectsAsMethods can be made some sort of an expected failure, I suppose.

Such a solution would be fine for the moment, while waiting for the 
definitive fix.
