Crash with invokeDynamic on MethodMissing attempt

[John Rose]

Yuck, a leftover from the invokeinterface encoding.  It's even clearly  
marked my code-distress marker (@@@@).

Yes, your fix looks OK....

But, the @@@@ line wants to be something better, and I think there are  
better entry points in constantPoolOop since I refactored the logic  
there.  Try to use cp->signature_ref_at() or at least  
nt_signature_ref_at().  (You can remove the distress marker.)
