They are supposed to do the same thing, and (I hope) do the same thing in mlvm 
and upcoming b145.

IIRC, in b143/b144 [generic]invoker returns a MH with a denatured type.

That is, invoker() is supposed to do the same thing as the special lookup, but 
without the possibility of reflection errors, typos in the string, general 
lookup overhead, etc.
