[Vm-dev] [OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm] ByteString(Object)>shallowCopy segfaults (#272)

[Eliot Miranda]

Closing.  It's obsolete.  There have been a few JIT bugs with shallowCopy and Spur that were fixed a while ago.  e.g. VMMaker.oscog-eem.1538

Cogit:
Fix /horrible/ bug with primitive error codes and fixups.  The adjustment of the initialPC to skip the primitive and error code, if any, was done after generating fixups for backward branches, and hence these branches were bogus.  Object>>shallowCopy in Spur is subject to this, but amazingly enough it has not surfaced before now.  Fix this by adjusting the initialPC before scanMethod scans for fixups.
