This would indeed be great - the C implementation of Python can handle
very large method bodies, but Jython currently can't.  So we see code
in the wild that we can't run.  We will grow an interpreted mode in
the next few months, and so will be able to handle this (but with a
performance hit I'm sure).  It would be much better if it just worked.
