Good question--there really isn't one. I've been trying to avoid
underscores in names, since it was inconvenient when the assembler
was trying to figure out if you were usin
Calling convention says that before a sub/method is invoked:
- P0 Holds the object representing the subroutine.
- P1 Holds the continuation for the caller, assuming this sub was called
with callcc. Otherwise NULL.
- P2 Holds the object the sub was called on. (For method calls)

Dan,
Why is there a callmeth op? Can't we just use a regular invoke as with other
subs? Or does the callmeth op do both a find and invoke as an optimization?
It does a find and invoke, and the callmethcc does a find,
cc-capture, and invoke.

Dan,
Why is there a callmeth op? Can't we just use a regular invoke as with other
