+ Specifically, this is the entry point to the effective METHOD invoked via
+ the vtable for the chain headed by CHAIN-HEAD, and serving the given ROLE.
+ The CHAIN-TAIL is the most specific class on this chain; this is useful
+ because we can reuse the types of method entries from superclasses on
+ non-primary chains.
Each effective method may have several different method entries, because
an effective method can be called via vtables attached to different
job of the method entry to adjust the instance pointers correctly for the
rest of the effective method.
+ A vtable can contain more than one entry for the same message. Such
+ entries are distinguished by their roles. A message always has an entry
+ with the `nil role; in addition, a varargs message also has a `:valist'
+ role, which accepts a `va_list' argument in place of the variable argument
+ listNo other roles are currently defined, though they may be introduced by
+ extensions.
+
The boundaries between a method entry and the effective method
is (intentionally) somewhat fuzzy. In extreme cases, the effective method
may not exist at all as a distinct entity in the output because its
content is duplicated in all of the method entry functions. This is left
up to the effective method protocol."))
