I took a closer look at the diffs in a file you renamed, from `classPrelinker.cpp` to `aotConstantPoolResolver.cpp`.  Changes still look good, notably the filtering logic on the bootstrap methods (and their arguments) that we support.

For the record, the diff I made for review is enclosed.  It makes the new indy-related logic stand out pretty well.
