    49     Instances of LazyMethod are created when doing a lazy autoload.

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

    51     which is cought here to create a real method from the receiver.

    52     This allows faster loading of code, which will then be compiled

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

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

    55     lots of memory.
