RFR: Compiler error for calling the method which returns void

[Robert Field]

shinyafox,

Thanks for reporting this.
Generating a void method will indeed give the desired null out of 
invoke, but I am more comfortable, for futures, in keeping the do_it 
signature stable.  With the API-based implementation, there is also no 
longer an, external to WrapFactory, need for prefix/suffix so I've 
implemented the fix somewhat differently.  I've pushed the fix.

Thanks,
Robert
