Fix the ZipPlugin (InflatePlugin&DeflatePlugin) to no longer depend on
specific
instance sizes for ReadStream and WriteStream which allows some
leniency in
redefining these classes. Fixes occasionaly Monticello commit bugs with
large packages after loading Collections-eem.567.
Fix compilation warnings in stringForCString:
Add a -warnpid flag that causes warning to print the pid;
useful in debugging multi-image tests (i.e. magma).
Reimplement the backward count in interpreted methods, storing the count
in IFrameFlags, hence eliminating the requirement that the jump happens
consecutively N times in a single method with no backward jumps in any
other
method. The Chameneos benchmark has this pattern and so two methods don't
get jitted. This eliminates lastBackwardJumpMethod & backwardJumpCount.
Spur:
Fix bad bug in remapObj: that confused the test for old vs
new and hence tried to copyAndForward old objects.
Fix bug in processWeaklings that could remember a weak object twice.
Mark the methods used by SpurMemoryManager>>globalGarbageCollect as
inline: #never for profiling.
Spur Newspeak:
Initialize numIRCs before checking for quick prims.
