Assembly output from JRuby 'fib'

I have seen a stack map issue with ASM 4 as well.  In my case it was dead 
( unreachable ) code which had
a return instruction in it.  Seemed to confuse the next stack map 
computation.  I am allowing ASM 4 to compute
the maps on its own.

I replaced it (the return) with no ops and the problem went away.  The 
other dead instructions did not seem to 
matter.

If you're willing, I'll toss you 1.5 and 1.6 ASM-produced bytecode
off-list and perhaps you can help me figure out if I'm doing something
wrong or if ASM is choking on our peculiar code structure. I need this
working to start running tests with invokedynamic.
