Hmm...  I don't see the bug in your diff.  Looks like someone is trying to invoke a MH in varargs style (Object...).  The error says "InvokeDynamicSupport.java:934:in `gwt':" but I don't know where this might be.

Anyway, I put GWT back the way it was, for (a) low arity and (b) method types without primitives.

(For high arity and/or types with primitives, it still uses ricochet frames, for which Tom found an optimization "opportunity".)

See if it makes things better for you...
