Rickard, Dean,

I'm afraid all this hacks can not work. It doesn't help to make
CompiledMethod::consts_begin() non-virtual and then calling a virtual
function from it. The problem ist that at the point where you call
consts_begin_v(), the vtable of 'this' is still the one of CodeBlob and
this results in calling yet another arbitrary function:

I think we really need to rework this as proposed by Andrew in his last
mail. I'm working on such a fix.
