Several tests fail with the CGP runcore (parrot -C) when multidispatch re-enters bytecode -- in specific, anything that calls into src/pic.c from Parrot_pcc_invoke_sub_from_sig_object causes failures. The problem appears to be that CGP's PIC tries to poke into the bytecode directly to find get_params and similar opcodes, while parameter-passing information is in a context after Parrot_pcc_invoke_sub_from_sig_object. One workaround is to enforce the use of the normal runcore only for calls back into Parrot from Parrot_pcc_invoke_sub_from_sig_object, but that's just a workaround. A better solution is to fix the PIC code to look in the appropriate place in the context for return values. That seems like a good task for the calling conventions branch. -- c
