Maybe Vladimir or other can recommend another class to setJavaLangInvokeAccess.  If it stays in MemberName, can you move line 1156-1157 to JavaLangInvokeAccess interface.

Per suggestion from Vladimir I've moved the JLIA definition to 
MethodHandleImpl.

Vladimir asked me to do it like this, since isolating as much as 
possible of the logic pertaining to the plugin better allows us to keep 
the concerns separate and reduce distracting alternative code paths in 
core j.l.invoke code that is not relevant to normal execution.

Done.
