pdd15oo: load_bytecode and :method subs

[Patrick R. Michaud]

In pdd15oo, there seems to be an issue about using load_bytecode
to load :method subs after a class has been created.

Here's my test code.  The main file is 'foo.pir':

    $ cat foo.pir
    .sub 'main' :main
        $P0 = newclass 'Foo'
        $P1 = new 'Foo'
        $P1.'foo_method'()
    
        load_bytecode 'bar.pir'
        $P1 = new 'Foo'
        $P1.'bar_method'()
    .end
    
    
    .namespace ['Foo']
    
    .sub 'foo_method' :method
        say 'foo_method'
    .end


Here's 'bar.pir', which is loaded via load_bytecode:
    
    $ cat bar.pir
    .namespace ['Foo']
    
    .sub 'bar_method' :method
        say 'bar_method'
    .end


When I run foo.pir, it doesn't recognize 'bar_method' as being
a valid method for Foo objects:
    
    $ ./parrot foo.pir
    foo_method
    Method 'bar_method' not found
    current instr.: 'main' pc 24 (foo.pir:8)
    $
   
It works if I move the load_bytecode line above the newclass opcode.

There doesn't seem to be any difference between loading bar.pir
or a pre-compiled bar.pbc .
