well this will produce a CompiledMethod instance. I am right?
Maybe i was unclear in explaining what my generator produces? It not
produces bytecode for squeak VM. It produces bytecode for PC CPU, also
known as assembler instructions.
You can't run them from squeak directly, a special plugin/primitive
will be required to do so.
If your PC CPU understands ST-80 bytecode then my generator is useless.
