 From PDD 11:

     "Parrot_call_method(interp, Parrot_PMC sub, Parrot_STRING method,
     Parrot_Int argcount, ...)"
         Calls a Parrot method named "method" with "argcount" PMC  
parameters.
         NB. This is not yet implemented and may change.

Although the signature is different, Parrot_call_method is in fact  
implemented. However, it is not documented beyond this from the  
source code:

     void* Parrot_call_method(Parrot_INTERP interp, Parrot_PMC sub,
             Parrot_PMC object, Parrot_STRING method, const char  
*signature, ...)>

     Call a parrot method for the given object.

We need some documentation and the PDD needs to be updated. I, at  
least, have been having some trouble understanding things just from  
the source.
