    Instances of LazyMethod are created when doing a lazy autoload.

    They do not contain any code (neither byte- nor machinecode), but

    keep their sourcecode only.

    When executed, these will trigger an error in the VM (noByteCode),

    which is caught here to create a real method from the receiver,

    amd re-execute the method.

    This allows faster loading of code, which will be later compiled

    when first executed; for classes with a large number of methods, of

    which only a small subset is actually used, this can also save

    lots of memory (beside making autoloading faster).

         this error is triggered, if the compilation of a lazy method

         failed - this happens for example, if a lazy method's code has been

         changed in a fileBrowser without checking the code for syntactical

         correctnes, or if the instvars of an autoloaded classes superclass 

         have been changed without changing the subclasses code ...

         You should enter the SystemBrowser on this method, and try accepting 

         to see what the problem is.

         The method's class is found in the local 'class',

         the selector is found in the local 'selector'.

         As a general rule: never edit autoloaded classes from anything

         except the browser - to check that they work and are compilable.
