It's astonishing how many people want to generate dead code :)

Rémi and I confirmed that it is in fact dead code (JRuby's fault) which is causing a problem for ASM 4 (ASM's fault). He's looking into a fix, and I'll try to eliminate the dead code.

Hopefully it can be fixed in ASM soon, since the code in question is being generated by a particularly gnarly part of JRuby's compiler.

I have seen a stack map issue with ASM 4 as well. In my case it was dead ( unreachable ) code which had a return instruction in it. Seemed to confuse the next stack map computation. I am allowing ASM 4 to compute
the maps on its own.

I replaced it (the return) with no ops and the problem went away. The other dead instructions did not seem to
matter.

If you're willing, I'll toss you 1.5 and 1.6 ASM-produced bytecode
off-list and perhaps you can help me figure out if I'm doing something
wrong or if ASM is choking on our peculiar code structure. I need this
working to start running tests with invokedynamic.
