RFR (XXS): 8024275: During CTW: assert(sig_bt[member_arg_pos] == T_OBJECT) failed: dispatch argument must be an object

[Vladimir Ivanov]

Chris,

Thanks for fixing this!

Minor commments:

	- can you rename (for now) can_be_compiled method to something specific 
to CTW to disambiguate it?

	- why do you place "... Skipping method: ..." message under the guard? 
I'd prefer to be verbose here.

Otherwise, looks good (not a Reviewer).

Best regards,
Vladimir Ivanov
