Hi Ralph,

when I saw this the first time, it seemed that the methods without
*become* in their name, would do a #become: but they did not.

Even if somebody tried with aMethod #become:, sooner or later the .image would crash: #becom:ing methods that can be in use by the VM is always a
very bad idea. So it rather looks like the methods you listed are 100%
pure[tm] rot or crap.

I suggest to remove them or, if you feel inclined, to deprecate them.
