I've been meaning to do this for JRuby's Ruby-level profiler.
Currently, the profiler decorates all method objects (JRuby's
"handles") with an additional wrapper, similar to an Indy + MH option.
However, since JRuby's indy linker knows nothing about this wrapper,
it binds differently...and doesn't inline the same way as a result.
Glad to hear the overhead from decorating the call paths with handles
isn't that high!
