+// Generate the self-patching vtable method:
+//
+// This method will be called (as any other Klass virtual method) with
+// the Klass itself as the first argument.  Example:
+//
+//   oop obj;
+//   int size = obj->klass()->klass_part()->oop_size(this);
+//
+// for which the virtual method call is Klass::oop_size();
+//
+// The dummy method is called with the Klass object as the first
+// operand, and an object as the second argument.
+//
+
+//=====================================================================
+
+// All of the dummy methods in the vtable are essentially identical,
+// differing only by an ordinal constant, and they bear no releationship
+// to the original method which the caller intended. Also, there needs
+// to be 'vtbl_list_size' instances of the vtable in order to
+// differentiate between the 'vtable_list_size' original Klass objects.
