Yes. You can override the class side method:
in Behaviour, it is defined as
compiler
"Answer a compiler appropriate for source methods of this class."
^self compilerClass new
environment: self environment;
class: self
so you can just
compiler
“Change the compiler environment "
^super compiler
environment: self myEnvironment
and it should work.
an a per method bases, we can only manipulate the compiler via Pragmas to set
options:
<compilerOptions: #(+ optionInlineTimesRepeat)>
for example.

indeed.. I still believe that we should late-bind global access :-)
