There's also the + call being dispatched through invokedynamic, and it
looks like this:

* GWT
** test: same as before, insert => drop => DMH
** target: permute => convert (IRubyObject to RubyFixnum cast) => DMH

The convert here is unavoidable since we have IRubyObject receiver
coming in and need to invokevirtual against RubyFixnum.
